Live in Switzerland, an independent contactor to a US company and get paid to US bank. What US taxes apply?
I want to know how much and what kind of taxes I will have to pay the US government in the situation where I would live in Switzerland working remotely from my home as an independent contractor (1099) to a US company and I would be paid to a US bank account. If possible, I would also like to know what taxes I would have to pay to the Swiss government.

iPhone is going to be sold exclusively through AT&T however, it should work in Switzerland since it has GSM.

adisma98 is correct, the iPhone is exclusive to AT&T/Cingular. The price of the handset WITH contract is $499 for the 4GB model or $599 for the 8GB model. It's generally possible to buy a phone WITHOUT a contract, but it usually costs ~$250 more. Also, with all the publicity and hype, they may opt not to do no-contract sales on this model initially. As for working in Switzerland, that shouldn't be a problem. The iPhone is EDGE, GPRS, GSM Quad-band, and WiFi capable. The only issue would be getting them to unlock it for you (normally, you could get any GSM dealer to unlock a GSM phone, but since this is an exclusive, they may not have the codes or software to do it).

Looking for advise on obtaining work authorization in Europe
Looking for advise on obtaining work authorization in Europe?
I am a teacher by profession and would like to work in France or Switzerland. Most of the recruiting agencies abroad are looking for people who already hold a permit or who is European. Can someone please advise me how to apply for a work permit on my own? Thanks in advance for your responses. A few schools are interested in me, but they told me they can only hire EU citizens or people with work permits! The process for filling out endless paperwork scares them I guess, but I'm willing to pay for the paper work myself.

the first thing is. did you receive a proposition to work in either country? ps: you still did not answer the question... do you have a job offer or not? re ps: there is no way that a school can offer /nor hire you while on the spot ,you are obviously not member of EU,( your schengen visa question) you would need an offer before going back to Europe. and you cannot get a work permit on your own. that is not the way work permit are given. job offer while outside Europe,work permit application and then entry to Europe.
2 :
You won't get a visa to work in France unless you get an offer of a job. You are not an EU citizen like me. You can't fill out paper work yourself without an offer of a position. So what you going to fill in? name of the place that has offered you a position? If you read the previous answer above me you see why. But you seem to ignore it. The rule are an employer would have to advertise the teaching position in all 27 EU countries before they would employ someone from outside the EU. The would have to prove that they couldn't get anyone from all 27 countries to fulfill the position before they take someone from outside the EU. Most of the teaching positions go to British and Irish teachers again both are EU citizens no visa needed or paper work needed. I'm afraid I have to tell you that it's hard for an American to work legally in the European Union. They don't want you, and they make no bones about it. It's not impossible, however, if you keep your options open and plan well, or if you're not too concerned with legality. One of the most important decisions before starting a job search in Europe is whether you want a "real" job , or just something fun for a while. The two cases are quite diffrent. The EU has incredibly tight employment policies, and is not fond of non-EU citizens coming to work, even for short periods. Therefore, if you're planning to work in the EU for a lengthy period of time, perhaps for a year or two after graduation, and would like a resume-enhancing job with a company or an organization, your best bet is to look for employment in the country of your choice while still in the United States. This is ridiculously difficult, but not impossible. Try calling companies with branches in that country and discussing possible opportunities. Call the American Embassy there and see if they have job opportunities or available internships. Plumb every contact you have, and even contacts thrice removed. Search the Web for jobs and call about listed positions aggressively. In conversation with the human resources person on the phone, try to get word of other companies in the field that might be interested in hearing from you, and call them. Unfortunately, companies cannot easily interview you, and even if you tell them you're willing to pay for your moving expenses, you've still got a lot going against you. A company hiring outside of the EU must prove to the government that no other EU national was available or qualified for the position. As most EU countries are suffering from very high unemployment rates, companies will have a hard time proving that no other EU national can fill the position unless you are qualified for a very specific field. Therefore, even if Max Mara in Italy can prove that no other Italian could fill the position, they still haven't gone far enough-they have to prove that no one in Germany, France, Italy, the United Kingdom, Spain, and so forth, can fill the position. This law is taken seriously and enforced. All this is on top of the fact that, as a recent graduate or current college student making plans for a year off, you're probably not likely to have a huge pile of work experience in your suitcase. For example, let's look at Germany. Before you can receive a work permit in Germany, you must first apply for a residence permit. This is an entirely separate process, and must be done within the country. To apply for residency you must provide proof of health insurance, proof that you have a place to live (meaning that you've secured accommodation beyond a hotel room), proof that you can support yourself (which generally consists of a statement from your employer), a certificate of health filled out by a German doctor. Each state has different exact requirements for all these forms, and some require a certificate of good conduct, as well. Once you have a residence permit, you may apply for a work permit. However, a residence permit does not guarantee a work permit, and in general it is best for your employer to arrange for the work permit for you. However, like in the rest of the EU, an employer must prove that there is no available German or EU nationals available and qualified for the job. And, as in the rest of the EU, the same hurdles rise up against a company finding it viable to hire you. Therefore, you have to take a leap here if you want legal employment in Germany. You must move to Germany, get a job without being able to guarantee potential employers that you will be able to live in the country, then apply for a residence permit, and then have your employer apply for the work permit, hoping that they'll get it. If you are planning to work here for a year or more, this process might be worth the results, but it's prohibitive for summer or semester work. I'll say it again: Europe does everything it can to prevent non-EU nationals from working in the EU. So how to get the coveted work visa if you just want a short-term job in the EU? It's not easy. You can apply, six months in advance, to all the appropriate authorities within the country of your choice, but you aren't all that likely to get one. Sure, sometimes someone in authority might feel some level of sympathy and permit you to work for the experience of it if you are a college student, but you can't bet on it. Lucky for you, there are companies that have taken this problem to the bank. Search the Web, and you'll find them. These companies will secure a six-month, nonrenewable work visa for you (although some offer eighteen-month visas for some countries), if you are a student or that you graduated from college within the last six months. They don't pay for your plane ticket, they don't find you a job or even guarantee you a job, and they in no way arrange or pay for living costs, but they do provide an orientation session during which they give advice about finding work and accommodation in your particular country. These companies charge varying fees, but they are rarely exorbitant: BUNAC, an organization that arranges work permits for Great Britian (and recently Australia and New Zealand) for example, charges $200 for their services. With a work visa in hand, various short-term positions will be available to you, although they won't be resume-builders. Due to the aforementioned unemployment problem, natives covet even the most menial jobs. However, restaurants and retail establishments are often in need of extra hands, and temporary job placement companies often look for qualified people to fill slots. Searching hard will inevitably produce something, particularly in large cities. In France, Germany, and Spain, au pair work abounds. Au pair work is much more posh than that of a mother's helper-au pairs are asked to perform only five hours of work a day (which includes childcare and light housework), are given free room and board (in a separate, private room) and a stipend, and have one completely free day a week. Mothers' helpers are generally expected to do a great deal of housework, cooking, and childcare, and are required to work longer hours with little or no completely free days to explore. All US citizens are allowed a three-to-six month legal stay in the EU without a formal visa, provided that they do not work. If you think you might use this easy admission to get into a country, and find a place to work illegally once there, you aren't the first. There are jobs for you, too. You can work as a housekeeper, a babysitter or mother's helper, or a hired-by-the-job handyman. In the German countryside and the Italian south, farm help is often appreciated. However, an unskilled farm worker in southern Italy should have some understanding of the necessary southern Italian dialects. (And women going alone should probably steer clear of this work option.) One of the most common jobs is in the tourist industry, where your knowledge of English becomes an asset. Hostels, pubs catering to backpackers, and many Mediterranean beach resorts have great job opportunities. Once in the EU, whether you're planning to work legally or illegally, your options for living quarters are only limited by your imagination. Those here for the short term will be glad to know that some people rent out rooms by the week or the month in their homes. It's possible to stay at a hostel the entire time you're working and it's often the cheapest option. Many universities rent out dorm rooms by the week over the summer months. As anywhere in the world, the higher the population, the higher the rent, so your best bet is to stay away from the larger towns, due to the high cost of living. However, the smaller towns will not have as many short-term positions available. All positions in European Union countries require at least a basic knowledge of the native language. The job you're aiming for will dictate how basic this knowledge may be. At the very, very least, you should be able to manage the basics of taking a customer's order when working as wait staff in a restaurant. Besides, you'll have a richer and more nuanced experience as a semi-fluent to fluent speaker in a foreign country. Sure, a lot of Germans can speak English-but what are you missing from those that can't? At least learn a meager amount before your cross-Atlantic flight, and take a full-blown language course during your stay. The United Kingdom is the one section of Europe that won't require at least a minimal understanding of a foreign language. Naturally, this opens many doors for employment opportunities that are closed in non-English speaking countries. It is important to realize, when considering whether to work in the EU, that you will most likely need to shell out much more than you will earn for the experience. However, it's a fantastic experience - nothing expands your mi

I think you need not to compare the standard of living of the country of origin to where you are living to day. What you need is to spell out all the cost you are incurring per day/ week/ month. The total/sum of it should be compared with what you are currently paid per day/week/month. If what you are currently paying/ cost of living is greater than what you are paid, then you have proved the case. But also even if what you are paid is greater than the cost of living, the magnitude should count. If you can prove that you missed some important information on the cost of living at the time you entered the contract with your company. But also if there are economic incidences that have arisen after the contract, like inflation, economic depression and the alike unforeseeable incidences;those again will be enough proof.

Can anyone help me to find a job/paid internship in social work in Toronto
Can anyone help me to find a job/paid internship in social work in Toronto?
Hi, I am a future graduate student from Switzerland in social work. I am looking for a job or a paid internship in Toronto from September 2009 to August 2010. I had a lot of work experience with children, teenagers and disabled persons. I speak French, English and Arabic. Does anybody know some institutions that can offer a position in Toronto?

You and countless thousands of others are future graduates looking for internship work, too. Canada is not some haven where jobs are plentiful, well paying and easy for anyone anywhere to get. Our economy is doing very badly with hundreds of thousands of Canadians losing their jobs what few jobs there are left - yes, even within the field of social work - will not go to foreigners. Sorry but that's the way it is. Your university might be a better source for you.

try job search engines like jobbank.gc.ca workopolis.ca mazemaster.ca

I would recommend looking into community organizations such as shelters, or agencies that specialize with children - such as the Children's Aid Society - they tend to take on recent graduates. The fact that you are trilingual is of benefit to you. Try some of these sites for names of agencies that you could contact. http://www.metrac.org/programs/info/tororg.htm http://www.toronto.ca/abc/affiliates.htm http://ourfaves.com/c/toronto/active-life/community-organizations-volunteering One more thing - don't get discouraged by negative comments - yes there is a recession, however there are jobs to be had and companies are still hiring. Social work is an occupation that is of demand, especially in these times, so don't dismay. Good luck with your job search!

Our economy is doing very badly with hundreds of thousands of Canadians losing their jobs what few jobs there are left - yes, even within the field of social work - will not go to foreigners. Sorry but that's the way it is. Your university might be a better source for you.
2 :
try job search engines like jobbank.gc.ca workopolis.ca mazemaster.ca
3 :
I would recommend looking into community organizations such as shelters, or agencies that specialize with children - such as the Children's Aid Society - they tend to take on recent graduates. The fact that you are trilingual is of benefit to you. Try some of these sites for names of agencies that you could contact. http://www.metrac.org/programs/info/tororg.htm http://www.toronto.ca/abc/affiliates.htm http://ourfaves.com/c/toronto/active-life/community-organizations-volunteering One more thing - don't get discouraged by negative comments - yes there is a recession, however there are jobs to be had and companies are still hiring. Social work is an occupation that is of demand, especially in these times, so don't dismay. Good luck with your job search!

Swiss Saver Pass number doesnt work for GA Switzerland option in trenitalia site ?
Me and my wife will be visiting Italy and then travelling to Switzerland by train . We have bought a swiss saver pass from rail europe . I'm trying to purchase tickets from Milan to Visp from trenitalia website , there is a fare type "GA Switzerland" which I understand is for swiss pass holders.But our swiss pass is 8 digits and the site requires a card number with 7 digits . Are we not supposed to select this fare type? What should I do ? I would really appreciate if any body could let me know how should I go about booking the ticket . Thanks

The GA isn't the same as the Swiss Pass, it covers the same routes but is for Swiss residents, and goes for at least a month, usually a year. Don't know what you should do, though, sorry. You could try emailing the Swiss railroad company. (Or Trenitalia)

I would like to find an employer in Switzerland to hire me on, and help set me up with some kind of lodgings. Can someone please email me some places that I can look into.

Since it is very difficult to get a work permit in Switzerland, I would suggest to contact you school in Canada and have them do the research for you. There are 2/3 culinary schools in Swizterland, you may get a job thru them. Also, major hotels may hire you, so if you work at an international hotel chain, transfer can be easy.(i.e. InterContinental Hotels, Hiltons, etc. etc.)

Whatever type of loan you are applying for, you should follow these basic rules to help you find the best deal. When searching for a loan, it pays to do your research. Look for as many suitable lenders as you can, so that you can find the very best deal. There are many online pages that<!--allow you to compare loan rates from a variety of lenders. As well as looking online, check out your high street banks and mortgage lenders for deals too. You may find the loan that you need here, http://best-loans.awardspace.com/ If possible, try and avoid taking out secured loans. If the amount you need to borrow is small or you have good enough credit to borrow without collateral, then do so. Although unsecured loans have higher rates, they are less risky because your home will not be at risk if you cannot make the payments.Try and take a loan out over the shortest period-->you can afford. Taking loans out over 10 years or more can be risky, and you cannot be sure what your financial situation will be at that time.

he reforms Obama wants work in the Netherlands and in Switzerland?
Now how many people PER CAPITA are taxpayers in these countries as compared to people per capita in the United States? And besides that, people in those countries are typically good and sensible parents, as opposed to newborns born to drug-addicted mothers, children being brought up by parents who use little or no common sense in the care of their children. Edna, we'd be happy here too if we didn't have to worry about thugs from projects breaking into our elderly parent's home and killing them and all the other wonderful things that the welfare system brought about.

Google: "best place to have cancer" You will find that its Cuba. They have Universal Health Care, worse doctors than USA, and still more people survive cancer there than they do in the USA, because of their health care system and preventative measures. They are much poorer and less sensible than people in USA, so you are not making a point. "If someone wants to live in a country with Socialized Health Care, there are plenty of options available." Wrong, you have obviously never traveled or are ignorant to immigration procedures. You cant just fly to another country and instantly become a citizen. With most countries, you have to have gone to college in order to get a job there and have a work sponsor. You must live in a country for a certain amount of years on approved visas and extensions before you can ever apply for citizenship and take advantage of health benefits. Majority of uninsured people, are out of work, so they are not the ones who have these high skills to get jobs in other countries, and they are not rich to buy their way into the countries with investor visas. Therefore, if someone here is uninsured, and wants to move to those countries to take advantage of their health care system, then they must first spend 2 to 4 years in a USA college, then they must wait to find a job sponsor in that country, which is another year to 3 years, then they must go through all the visas and get approved, which wont happen if they have felonys or a lot of debt, then they must wait another 5 to 10 years on those visas to become a citizen. So all in all, it would take at least 12 to 20 years for an uninsured person in USA to be able to use the health care in another country. Not to mention all the money that would take to make the move, they might as well forget health care and spend that money on doctor bills here in USA. Besides, the uninsured have no money, or else they would be insured, so is no options for them, as you say. Im self employed, I want to be a citizen of Thailand. I stay there 6 months out of the year, and dont need to work a job there, but I can not stay there longer than 6 months unless I get a work sponsor. I cant get a work sponsor, because I am self employed and did not go to college (I own several websites that bring income in). They got rid of their investor visa, so I cant invest money to stay there, my only option is work sponsorship. So its a catch 22. Even if I had a work sponsor, I would still have to live there on visas for 10 years to apply for citizenship, and that doesnt guarantee that they will grant it, and nothing guarantees they will grant each visa since I have to apply for extensions each year.

Work attire in Switzerland
Work attire in Switzerland?
I am about to move to Switzerland, and recently had my ears pierced (I am male) - I read that work attire in Switzerland was very casual - I hope to get an office job which may involve some client interaction (probably in Zurich) - will I be expected to remove my earrings?

unless you got multiple piercings (where the entire outer pinna is studded) or the really long bar-type double-piercings, i wouldn't worry about it; single piercing should be ok. work dress in Switzerland ranges from conservative to casual, though in general, i find the Swiss to be better dressed than Americans; they may not be as flamboyant as the rest of Europe, but men do dress with style and (more) flair than in the States. i'd worry more about that (especially if you're the blue shirt+khakis kind of guy).
2 :
you should ask your employer about it. that's simple.
3 :
Well my husband's grandfather has an earring, if that helps any... I think one earring per ear should be fine, nothing too big, though it'll probably depend on the job. As you might imagine, the banks and insurance companies are typically more conservative than...uh, are there any other industries here? Anyway, you may be expected to wear a suit, but tasteful earwear should be fine.

They are pretty casual about things like that, as long as it's tasteful. If they don't want you to wear it to work they will say so.

First of all we are not living in the middle Ages anyway! Also not in Switzerland even if for some people Switzerland is cheese, Alps and chocolate what it's all about we are not that complicated. I think if you will work in a bank or at a Hotel and you are tongue, lip or eyebrow's pierced it could be a problem. But earrings is no problem! I even got my nose pierced and work in a office job! Wish you all the best for your new start!
6 :
No, chances are you won't unless you are aiming for an ultra-conservative field such as private banking. Zurich is so hip anyway, you'd be out of place to not have a piercing. My husband works for the telcom industry, seems like these days anything goes, even Marilyn Manson t-shirts.

Here are the main things you must provide if you only want to apply for a work and residence permit for Switzerland: - Highly specialized professsional skills neither a Swiss or a EU citizien has. You must prove this with the appropriate certificates (internationnaly recognised university diploma and such). - Knowledge of fluency in either German, French, Italian (in very rare cases, if applying for high positions in management, English would do) If you can't cope with this, better forget about dreaming of living in Switzerland. Consider that the worldwide downturn had a very siginificant influence onto the Swiss labor market, chances even for Swiss and EU citizens to get a job are very limited, too.
