I didn't reply because I don't know and don't care. The "tax" in Korea is not a flat percentage, as your employer may have led you to believe. In fact it's on a progressive scale just like most countries. When I file my tax return I'll find out what I actually owe, and then settle accounts with the boss, who has been taking a flat 5% since I arrived.
PS: Does anybody know when tax season is? When and how do you file a tax return? |

My overtime was always taxed - back in the days when I worked forced overtime.
As for the tax return - all of my previous returns have actually been filed by my school, which would approach all teachers one day and tell us to sign the form that they had graciously compelted for us. About a month later (end of January maybe?) a deposit was made into our accounts with the refund. |

Tax time is January. Last year I got 1.4 million back.
I quit my job in August and on September 10th, but prior employer depostited my tax return (1.0 mill) into my bank account. Most employers do taxes for the employees... |

Yes, I'm aware that my employer is willing to "do" my taxes. I want to do them myself.
You quit your job twice? |

Im sure every waygookin would appreciate their tax return, is there any way of downloading such a form from the net? Does everyone here do tax returns? 1000$ ? And you don't? I don't / I haven't. Yet. |
