|
|
I am thinking of coming over to teach for the summer, and am just wondering if it's possible that a school/institution/organization can sponsor me for an E visa rather than a C visa in order to avoid the high C class tax rate....I don't fancy handing back 20-25% of my pay....
Anybody know how to avoid the taxes for a short-termer coming from abroad?
Thanks,
TB |

E visas are issued for over 90 days and up to 1 year.
C visas are for under 90 days.
Camps are never more than 90 days...
so the short answer to your first question is NO.
To answer your 2nd question, there is no legal work around for short timers. |
