Hello
I need advice moving from Paris to work in chicago next year. here is my situation
- 33 years old software engineer with 9 years of experience
- married and having a 1 year old baby
- Gross income in paris 55k€per year
My boss would like me to work in our heardquarters in chicago and offered me a 95k$ salary.
Here are my questions:
Taxes related:
- How does taxes work in Chicago, Illinois ?
- How much total taxes am expected to pay (federal, state, ...) ?
- Do I have to fill any form to pay taxes, or is it paid by my employee ?
- How much is (or how to calculate) my take home salary?
- I have an appartment here in France and I plan to rent it; do I have to declare that rent in the US and pay taxes on that rent?
- I will probably move in June 2015, is there a way that I can avoid paying taxes in france on 2015 income?
- How complicated is to rent an appartment in a safe area of chicago compared to paris?
- Do you pay taxes for renting an appartment (taxe d'habitation) ?
lots of questions, I know, but please help me as much as you can.
Thanks,
