I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be snarky. I would have to declare this in Canada too. But in Korea we are dealing with employers who don't even give pay slips a lot of the time along with all the other supposed things that we are supposed to get (but don't).
How in the world are we supposed to know the proper tax rate and everything when we don't even get proper pay slips?
I've had 4 employers in Korea so far, only the first one gave pay slips and that employer stopped giving them towards the end of the contract..........so people would be left in the dark as to how much their final pay should be.
This ain't Kansas. |
That really stinks. I've always gotten payslips in Korea, but I can see I've been lucky. Also a bit innocent, because I have never realized returns were being filed in my name! I've even been able to get written statements declaring the value of my housing to declare on my US taxes.
"Any year you go to Korea is a tax-free year."
IME, anyway. |
