How many years of experience are required for foreigners to work in Hong Kong/Singapore?
How many years of experience are required for foreigners to work in Hong Kong? How many years of experience are required for foreigners to work in Singapore? How many years of experience are required for foreigners to work in Taiwan? Thanks! Primarily, the problem is I graduated from college May 2008, so up until now, I only have 1 year of full-time work experience. I believe that China and Taiwan both require 2 years of work exp. for foreigners to qualify for a work permit.

The country's government will give you a work permit as long as you've secured a job in some company. At least that's how it is in Singapore. I imagine the case would be similar in the other countries. From the company's point of view, as long as you fulfil their requirements, they'll be glad to hire you. If you apply for an entry position, of course not much experience is needed. But if you apply for the position of a Director, obviously you'll need lots more experience.

I plan to work in Hong Kong and I am a US permenant resident (not citizen), should I pay tax to the US
I plan to work in Hong Kong and I am a US permenant resident (not citizen), should I pay tax to the US?
Hi, I plan to work in Hong Kong for a few years and wonder if I still need to pay tax to the US as a permanent resident. For example, the greatest benefit of working in HK is its low rate of income tax. Should I pay additional tax to US government even though I am not a US Citizen and don't reside in the US for a few years? Yes, I wan to come back to the states in a few years for sure so I want to keep my green card. Thanks for your information.

All US citizens and permanent residents are to report their worldwide income. To alleviate possible double taxation, you would be able to exclude up to $91,400 (2009 rate) if you meet all of the qualifications, plus housing, as well as foreign tax credit for taxes paid to HK gov't. Check out IRS Publication 593: http://www.irs.gov/publications/p593/ar01.html

All iPhones 4 use micro sim cards. If you want an iPhone 4, you will have to cut down your sim. Instructions are on the web. There are also sim cutters available. Since Hong Kong iPhones are factory unlocked, they will work with any sim as long as you correctly cut down the sim.
