Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@4440864 , it is a messy situation at best.

1. when the work is done here in the USA, the income is generally not considered foreign.

2. if this income  is taxed by Thailand -- who pays that?  Does she have  a Thai tax ID?  Why is it being taxed in Thailand -- the work is being done in the USA>  Please tell me more on this .

3. The only around this would be  to resource the Thai income ( for work done in the USA ) to Thailand  and thereby class it as foreign income and therefore  the tax thereon is  eligible  for   credit.  But this is much more convoluted  way to do it.

4. was  she employed by this same company ( the payor) if and when she was in Thailand or is this a contract for work ---- then it needs to be treated differently, including  FICA taxes. Tell me more about the work relationship 

 

You say she has Green Card . Are you also a resident or citizen of  US--- are you   both residing in the USA -- since when ?

 

Need these answers to make sense
