    Taxes for an L1 Visa
    I have a L1 tax question. I hope you can help me.

    I got an L1 Visa and my Family an L2 Visa. My family is living in Houston TX area and I have been traveling from USA to Mexico since July 2006. 80% of my time I am in Mexico. I receive 100% of my monthly pay in Pesos in Mexico. I do not receive money in the USA.

    Do I need to pay taxes in USA, if not, what do I need to do?

    Thanks

    Luis
