Hello everyone out there in webland, and welcome to yet another exciting edition
\nof the nathanielstern.com<\/a> blog. Today’s
\ntopic, thanks in no small part to the help of the charming Jerry Botha over at
\nDeloitte,<\/a> will be: taxes.<\/p>\n

So it seems that due to my South African residence, and the fact that I have spent
\nless than (I think it was) 180 days in the US, I will likely get back all<\/em>
\nof my deducted taxes from the US – this is for the work I did in both New York
\nand Minneapolis, on both the state and federal level.<\/p>\n

If you are in a similar position to my own elsewhere in the world, don’t get too
\nexcited just yet – I will then have to pay South African taxes (much higher rates)
\nfor my income worldwide<\/em>. Luckily, I’ll be able to use deductions from
\nmy home office, but this is still a chore, and I will probably wind up owing a
\nbit (give or take a lot). Like many things, time will tell.<\/p>\n

Off to do some freelance stuff (flash, javascript, etc) for some web-people now;
\nif you want to relieve me of said duties, by more art :) <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
