Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Yes, you are correct. You would need to file all taxes in the US and then claim a foreign tax credit from Kazakhstan. They would not be able to claim a foreign-tax credit because this is US-Sourced income. 

 

Since,  the United States does not have a Totalization Agreement with Kazakhstan, they will need to pay Social Security and Medicare taxes.
