I am a consultant at an international organization since July 2nd 2007. I have a G4 visa and I make 3 thousand a month.There is confusing information regarding the fact that I must or must not pay taxes. Previously, it was supposed that consultants did not pay because they were under the G4 status but somebody told me that because I am a consultant I have to pay. Do I have to pay or not? If I have to: how do I do so?
Thank you for your time.
