@skinnylatte i wish someone helped my *pay* my taxes. Even with uncle sam taking a portion of every paycheck last year I still owed $6k😢

Bonjour! I’m a US citizen living in France with a verbal job offer from a US IT company willing to hire me remotely, pending legal review with their employment lawyer.

I need advice on whether to ask for contractor vs employee status and the legal/tax implications of both (they haven't decided which they want me as).

Is there a #taxattorney on #Mastodon who can help?

Familiarity with US/French tax laws is key. Willing to pay for your time.

@frank are you in the drivers seat making this video?

@Infoseepage nah, we don't get to decide others' identities for them.

@kingrat the solution isn’t to convince NIMBY’s, it’s to legislate by-right incremental development.

If you’ve got a single family home, you should be able to walk in and out of a permitting office in one day with a permit to build a duplex , triplex, or triple decker.

If you have a duplex/triplex, by right you should be able to build a 3-5 story apt building.

You have a 5 story building, by right you should be able to build a 10 story building.

No community input meetings needed.

I’m sitting near an old guy also waiting to go to Paris. He said that he doesn’t know any French and I taught him “je prends deux croissants” and said “that’s all you need to know.”

A French chick sitting near us overheard and said “that’ll work.”
