What is the taxable income and rate of green card holders?
A green card holder is considered a permanent resident of the United States. This means that for any income you make, you will need to pay federal and New York income taxes on that income. This is on income that you make world wide. When there is an income tax treaty between the United States and the country you are from, you may be exempt from some of the taxes, otherwise, you will need to pay taxes to both of the countries. You should get a break from taxes on one of the two countries, depending on where you work and how you get your money. It is a requirement that 30% of the payment be given to the IRS if it is from a nonresident. If you are a green card holder, you should not have to pay the 30%.
