Just got married early this year... not sure what to do about taxes for the Korea side. I'll need a tax man to do my USA taxes now.

What are your suggestions? I work at a univ, and they give me some kind of yearly tax statement. Do I need to file somehow now that I'm married (Korean wife)?

Your wife should know how to do it. Also, if you're a credit card holder, make sure your wife files for the refund on all the VAT you pay when you use it. "Boo-ga kachi seh"

My company did my tax return - all automated for us, so that was really easy.

So the tax paper I get from my uni (sounds similar to yours, and is about a page front/back, I remember) is an already finished return?

The USA tax system is much more complex, then.
