HELP!</title><link>http://www.directfreelance.com//Forum/Topic125-9-1.aspx</link><description>How does the tax thing work for freelance? Do I need to save tax money aside due to the country I reside in or the country the work was hired out from? My situation is weird and has completely melted my brain... I am a US citizen, with a resident visa in the UAE (where I reside permanently and work) - I am currently working on a job from Germany... what am I doing about taxes? Someone help before my head pops off in complete confusion. Thanks!</description><pubDate>Tue, 30 Oct 2007 08:13:56 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>tbwebber</dc:creator></item><item><title>Help!</title><link>http://www.directfreelance.com//Forum/Topic167-9-1.aspx</link><description>Hi i am starting out as a fresher right now.

The tax people are on his back, but what can he do if the client won't pay. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This has got to be the greatest downfall, yes?</description><pubDate>Wed, 27 Dec 2006 20:22:08 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>SparklingCopy</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
