請問一下
如果從F1轉為OPT(optional practical training)
在找到工作之前需要付任何稅金嗎?
境外的收入也需要報入美國稅務局嗎?

小道消息不可靠,還是諮詢律師比較好

而且可敎你逃漏稅

Here's the answer I got from some friend:

1. In general, you do not need to file tax return if you have no income under OPT. Unless you have big saving in the bank and received big amount of interest, then it will be another story.

2. NOPE. Even you have income in the US, as long as you are filing 1040NR, the IRS will not ask for income outside the US.

For more info, I will highly suggest to visit the IRS website: www.irs.gov look under foreign student.

the only income that a student has is probably interest from a bank. You do not need to pay federal income tax on that as long as you have a W8-BEN on file with the bank. Since there is not SSN there is no way for the IRS to require you to report income and pay taxes.

However after OPT starts, and you receive income, a 1040NR will need to be filed, and a 540NR will need to be filed in CA if that is where you live.

Even though the U.S. Federal government does not require income tax to be paid, the state of CA does, so it will depend on how much income you have while employed in CA to determine how much taxes you will have to pay.

Hope the above information helps, 如果有其他問題可以 email 我

（1）沒找到工作之前，就沒有所謂『薪資所得』問題。所以，不需要支付這部份。
（2）不需要。

相關問題你想更近一步了解，你可以洽詢 H & R BLOCK 。
