    Your E-3 income is subject to SS tax, Medicare tax, and income taxes.
    Depending upon when you entered the U.S. you will file nonresident return, dual status return or resident return for the first year. Read Your U.S. Tax Return: Substantial Presence Test

    If you are filing resident return, then you must disclose your worldwide income. Read: Your U.S. Tax Return: U.S. Citizen or Resident with Foreign Income
