tax question
I was talking to my accountant and he said to be careful with the tax exemption status for working abroad-he said it was up to $100,000 and if you were in the use for more than 30 days even while on vacation you lose your tax exemption status. Don't you all get 45 days leave? I also was wondering about the wide body trips as they do have over nights in the USA-do those count?
One of the big factors in taking the job is the extra money you get while over seas-who does your finances and what other loop holes are there you can use? Does your housing allowance/per diem get counted as income?
Thanks
