Do you need someone that tells everyone else what to do? Or maybe just someone hang out and tell all the other employees that they are doing a great job?

he-fox · 10-17-2006, 11:47 AM

Hot and tempting offer, but the he-fox is heading south in march... besides this, i will never-ever work for anybody, even if it's IWantU, on of the best company's out there.

The guy/girl who will take this chance, will have the time of his/her life here. Pura Vida

Varius · 10-17-2006, 11:58 AM

There is more than one available opening as well....we're looking for at least 1 who can handle the project manager role, and then those as well who may only want to be a senior programmer and not worry about managing others.

Luckily us Canadians don't even need to hide, long as we declared non-residency to Canada any money we make here we can bring back no problems

Not a good idea crockett

Annual filings are still required, irrespective of where ya may live - BUT, there is approx $70K allowance for foreign residency.

It is also fair to say that any funds brought into the country from "whatever sources" is not taxable in Costa Rica - think on it

Can sure see your point man

Prob involves some major action and can be complex, depending on the obstacle course which others may wish to pursue. Also depends what you want to do etc and whether the effort is worth it.

Just off the cuff, it suggests relinquishing citizenship and taking up another (possibly in CR, Panama or a Euro country) where there are no problems with foreign residency and no applicable taxation in the "home country".

One of the poss main problems may be if you are a US citizen resident abroad - there is a check with IRS records when it comes to passport renewal and a passport may be delayed until a resolution is found with the IRS. (Not sure they can refuse a passport if you are a US citizen, but chances are you may get the indictment papers along with it

)

It may be a clue to speak with a US trained lawyer not resident in the US with some experience of these problems. Can think of some qualified lawyers who may be worth chatting with if this could help - tho who knows if they will find an actual solution.
