How much are they deducting from you pay (%) and where do you think the money is going?


The Finance Office gave me the address to the local tax bureau and told me I'd have to put in an official request with them to obtain an official tax--but they wouldn't tell me. They could easily have told me the amount, so it's a bit dodgy to me.

But I've turned a new leaf, and as Bud suggested, I'm now going to keep my mouth shut and start "stepping and fetching." I just need to step back from caring.


Keep sending them an email every 2 days asking for the itemization and a tax receipt until you get it. This way if the shit ever hits the fan at your school, your ass is covered by the emails. Verbal conversations never took place in China.

I think this is a common and touchy problem. Just tell them you need a tax receipt to pay your taxes back home. Try not to make a big deal out of it or they may think you are a trouble-maker.
