US Income Tax

14 years ago

Greetings folks,
I am writing regarding the W – 2 forms (income tax in US). I am a US citizen who moved to Jordan in 2008. When in the states; I was working for an educational institution and in 2009 they rehired me to work for them part time. My work with them is 100 % fully online over the internet. This year I received the W-2 forms and I have to file for taxes (federal and state). I am wondering if you can guide me regarding:
1- The way of filing for taxes (federal and state) knowing that I am currently residing in Jordan (How can I file for taxes while in Jordan?).
a. Can I file for them using the e-file (internet) and how? or
b. Does the embassy help with such issues? Or
c. Is there any tax services office in Jordan that is familiar with the US tax system and help in filing for US citizens for a fee?
2- Does any one of you have such similar experience? If so, please guide me through the process.
3- If I need to pay for the IRS or if they’ll reimburse me; can this be done while I am in Jordan?
I appreciate immensely any advice you offer me regarding this matter. I will be grateful if you respond to my e-mail: [email protected]
Thanks a lot in advance,
