Pizza Night/Tax Questions and Answers

—————————————————————–
Taxes aren’t much fun, but the U.S. government requires that they be paid by everyone who earns money in the U.S., even au pairs. At our January meeting, we enjoyed pizza together and reviewed tax information (the pizza helped to make the tax discussion a little less painful:-) Au pairs had access to 2012 tax forms and had an opportunity to ask questions about who should file a tax return and how a return is to be filed. Tax information, instructions and forms can be accessed by clicking on the link to the right of this page entitled “Au Pairs – Tax Information”. The deadline for filing tax returns in the U.S. is April 15. If an au pair has earned enough money during 2012 to owe taxes (it will depend upon her arrival date), she can file her tax return any time between now and April 15.
