    Taxes for a post-doc in harvard
    Hello,

    Im a post-doc from Israel at Harvard University at Beth-Israel deaconess. I've started this month. I have a J-1 Visa. I was wondering about taxes. Am I going to pay them now and get a refund at the end of the year, or I shouldn't pay at all?

    If you qualify under the treaty, you should not have the taxes withheld. Talk to your employer and they will get you to sign a declaration and then not have tax taken out.
