I did a search for 'tax' but couldn't find anything that addressed taxes and legal work.

If (and I realize that may be a big if) I manage to find legal work in CR and land a work visa, will I have any obligation to pay income taxes in Costa Rica?

You will probably get paid in cash like most 90 day boarder jumping teachers here. If you do find legal work, they will take 9% of your gross income and you'll get medical insurance through the government's socialist healthcare system. There are no year end taxes to file or anything to remember.
