Federal Income Tax (Withholdings)
Federal Income Tax Most types of US source income,
even when received by a foreign person, are subject to US tax of twenty one (21%) to thirty percent (30%) depending on the gross salary of the employee.
Social Security Federal Income Tax Withholdings
inherently include your Social Security Tax. This tax is a 7.65% of your yearly gross income.
