Qatar has no tax. The USA has income tax and everyone must file. If you make over the 85K ceiling of tax free income then the remainder is taxed at 28%. That is a very basic assessment...if you want specifics contact a tax attorney:)

yeah... that's what usually in my Income Tax return sheet:

1.Income: X

2.Expense: shoes, shoes, shoes... purse... shoes, shoes, shoes...

3.Amount to be taxed: -10,000

if by taxed you imply, local Income tax, then no, but most countries dont have dual taxation but you need to check for your specific country Tax rules relating to overseas income.

In a previous thread someone mentioned about taxes for an American for salaries above 85k, so I was curious if that applies for everyone. Any taxes for Indians ???
