Basically this is my deal:
I haven't had a job for a few years since I was a full time student, and since 7/1/06 I've been working abroad as an English teacher, making a couple grand per month. I've been getting paid in the foreign currency and I've been paying taxes. So I shouldn't have to pay taxes in the U.S., correct? Since I've never actually filed taxes, I'm not quite sure what should be done. Use good old Turbo Tax and go from there?
The critical point of all this, is that I will be attending law school in the Fall of this year. And that's a loan nightmare. I'm trying to get the ball rolling ASAP so I can fill out all the FAFSA, Stafford, Grad Plus, etc etc etc forms now. Good lord is this a complicated mess.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
