Folks,
Due to my visa status (OPT - H1B out of status gap), I'll be leaving the country for about 4 months and working from their international office. The employer has told me that I'll be transferred to their international payroll system and get paid in US dollars to my US bank Account. This is because I CANNOT work for my employer since I donot have a valid visa status during those 4 months. More over they told me that since the employer does not want to deal with international taxes and stuff they will pay me the full amount WITHOUT deducting any taxes
Hence, my question is: when it comes to filing taxes for FY2007 where will I file my taxes for those 4 months, is it in the US or in the country where I worked. Please note that I'll be paid in my US dollars to my US bank account.
Help will be appreciated
