I have some tax questions I like answered, I've done some research and found out that I stay out of country for 330/365 days I can get "most" of my income taxes back.


I'll be in Saudi till November 30th, have been here since June 11th.

I come back January 1st, so that's 31-32 days I'll be state side.

I'll then be here till at "least" March 30th.... that's only 2.5 months shy of being gone the needed number of days to qualify.




If I we're to qualify, what steps do I need to take to get that money back? And what all would I still need to pay? And am I missing anything here?

to qualify you need to be out of the states for the the full 330, it goes by your contract year not the tax year. but if you dont do a full year then you will not be able to be expempt from federal tax. i do private security overseas.

and if you have not already stopped federal taxes from coming out you can get the tax form and give it to your company, or just when ever you do taxes you will get some of the money back from federal not every penny. I just did the tax form when I started working.

So can I go back into the states for a few weeks in the middle of my year?

yeah I did one my contracts may5 2014, may5 2015 I took 3 weeks in October of 2014, the irs has a formula they prorate days. but make sure the whole contract year you do not go over the days allowed in the usa, even if it is an emergency.

since you haven't already filled the tax form to stop federal taxes you can do it any time, and any previous months paid you will get taxes back just like any other regular time when file. and from the month you file the tax form until jan 1 federal taxes will not be taken out. and jan 1 you will have to fill out another one of those papers. it is complicated, I don't suggest it though, because if something happens, even an injury and you have to go home and you pass days allowed, you will owe any back month taxes
