Hi there!
I received a partial lawsuit settlement for $20k in back wages in 2019. Since my lawyers haven't received the full amount, they are continuing with litigation against my former employer.
The company is based in Australia, and they've never given American employees tax forms. My lawyers are trying to secure a W-2 or 1099-MISC, but I doubt my former employer will produce them.
How would I pay taxes on the partial settlement??
Thank you.
