Disclosure Release 2017-2024 Form

I wrote about the independent-contractor-vs-employee issue last year, see http://nctaxpro.wordpress.com/20...Broadly speaking, you are an employee when someone else - AKA the employer - has control over when and where you work and the processes by which you perform the work that you do for that individual. A DJ or bartender under some circumstances, I suppose, might qualify as an independent contractor at a restaurant, but the waitstaff, bus help, hosts, kitchen aides, etc. almost certainly would not.There's always risk in confronting an employer when faced with a situation like yours - my experience is that most employers know full well that they are violating the law when they treat employees as independent contractors, and for that reason they don't tolerate questions about that policy very well - so you definitely should tread cautiously if you want to keep this position. Nonetheless, I think you owe it to yourself to ask whether or not the restaurant intends to withhold federal taxes from your checks - if for no other reason than you don't want to get caught short when it comes to filing your own return, even if you don't intend to challenge the policy.

I would ask the company that is giving you the invitation letter for your visa for assistance finding an apartment.For approximately 2+ years I lived and taught in various schools teaching English: Wuxi, Xamian, Xa'in, Shanghai, Qinhuangdao, Beijing, Nanjing, Liaoning, Jinhua, Chengdu, and Qinhuangdao which was the last place I was teaching before returning to the United States in 2015.If I was being hired through a recruiting agency, the agency always paid for my temporary residence until everything was was ready for me to move over to a apartment. If you do a little digging around online you will find many examples of people who weren't prepared for the realities of living in China, such as this person:I've had problems before. It's quite frustrating when the staff tell you "You are a foreigner. You can't stay here" as if that's a totally acceptable situation. In these instances, I think they either didn't have a computer registration system that had an allowance for foreigners or didn't know how to use it. Another quite likely possibility is that they didn't want to admit that they weren't sure how to use it.When it was clear that I didn’t know how to prepare and budget for my expenses in China, every organization would advance me RMB.Understand that “Education” is within the top 5 industries in China and the private English training centers are big money makers, so naturally there will be competition, and the parents compete in getting their child the best education possible. I can honestly say, the concern and attention that is given by the parents in China to their child’s future, dwarfs anything I have ever seen in the United States. If a child somehow had the choice to choose where they wanted to grow up, I’m pretty sure they would choose China over the United States. Why?No hand-me-down clothes.No dissapointment Christmas mornings when the largest gift under the tree didn’t have their name on the tag.More likely to have an intact family.Don’t get kicked to the curb at age 18.Don’t have to devote endless time, money, and flowers looking for someone to marry.Those sort of things.Continuing with the residence topic, my apartment in Nanjing wasn’t ready, because most of the building was still being built — but I didn’t sweat it, it’s common and expected that the foreigner will need assistance finding a place to live.Never once, in all my time in China, did I ever do these two things myself:Open a bank accountFind housingThe majority of hotels that did allow foreigners and were in complete compliance with the laws in China, were in the bigger cities where there is more demand to hire foreigners. In fact, I never felt special in Beijing, because there were white people all over the place!Since you are talking about accommodations, remember this, it happens everywhere.Hotels will tell you to surrender your passport. Ask your friend or coworker accompanying you to any hotel if the hotel can scan the passport and leave you with the physical passport. More than likely they will say “no” but it doesn’t hurt to ask, even in China.Here are some requirements, and you should never skirt (try to bypass) any rule in China, especially if you are a foreigner and wish to travel or work in China in the future.Apart from Liaoning and Hebei provinces where I encountered this issue regularly I had no issue's. So to me it feels like a regional issue. Though I tend to move every couple of days the number of places I've been is limited so this is not reliable statistics. A fair number of the places I stayed did not register me with the PSB. Some didn't ask for my passport or if presented had only a quick look and gave it back. Also, several seemed at a complete loss on how to register a foreigner, made a copy of the passport to sort it out later.As a foreigner in China myself, I've noticed that China has an awkward love-hate relationship with all things foreign. On the one hand, the Chinese are fascinated by foreigners. English signs on shops and restaurants are fashionable and prestigious. American-style housing suburbs are all the rage. Western sports stars and Hollywood celebrities have massive fan followings here. After decades of Maoist isolation, the Chinese are eagerly traveling to foreign countries, studying English, watching Hollywood movies, eating Western food and listening to Western music.In the same way Americans take pride in the United States, the Chinese also take pride in their country. If you are ever brought to dinner and don’t know how to break-the-ice and initiate a conversation, as about the 5,000+ years of history that China has in comparison to the few hundred the United States has.Be a considerate and polite guest in China, as any perceived slight by a foreigner might come across as disrespecting China or its people, even in relatively petty incidents such as traffic accidents or street disputes.Occasionally, I have been asked if I am aware of China’s laws regarding the stay of foreigners in hotels. If I was asked to sit at a computer, they’d already clicked three or four screens deep to set me up for domestic tourist registration.In most provinces, there are two tabs in the upper left hand corner. There are some subtle differences in each province. When you sit down at the computer the first tab “境内游客入住” will probably have already been chosen. Hotel staff do this automatically. Until you point out the existence of the “境外游客入住” tab they may have been completely unaware that it existed.Point out the Foreign Tourist Residency Registration if asked “境外游客入住” and tell the hotel staff that you understand the PSB requirements for registering foreign guests.Everything that is marked in red, starred, or underlined (depending on the province) must be filled out. Having accidentally misspelled my own name on one very tired occasion, entered my passport number wrong on another, and learning that I had been putting in the wrong visa information.Once (and only once) in Sichuan, the moment I entered my passport number, almost all of the other information that had been entered the night before was automatically filled in. But it only happened the one time in Sichuan and nowhere else.Keep in mind that not every province has the same things marked in red. Passport Number, Passport Type, Country of Origin, Gender, Birthdate, Type of Visa, Expected Date of Departure from China, Date of Entry into China, and Port of Entry are all reliably in red. Room number is never in red but if you don’t fill it out the system won’t allow your submission to go through.I fill out most nearly everything on the form. It’s easier than figuring out what’s in red for this province. The only blank I absolutely will not fill in is “credit card number”.John | Boulder Bridges @ Ready to Work Employment| 4747 Table Mesa Dr, Boulder, CO 80305 | Google Maps | Boulder Bridges | Facebook | John Russell Burgreen III

I was selected for a summer internship 2016.I tried to be very open while filling the preference form: I choose many products as my favorite products and I said I'm open about the team I want to join.I even was very open in the  location and start date to get host matching interviews (I negotiated the start date in the interview until both me and my host were happy.) You could ask your recruiter to review your form (there are very cool and could help you a lot since they have a bigger experience).Do a search on the potential team.Before the interviews,  try to find smart question that you are going to ask for the potential host (do a search on the team  to find nice and deep questions to impress your host). Prepare well your resume.You are very likely not going to get algorithm/data structure questions like in the first round. It's going to be just some friendly chat if you are lucky. If your potential team is working on something like machine learning, expect that  they are going to ask you questions about machine learning, courses related to machine learning you have and relevant experience (projects, internship). Of course you have to study that before the interview. Take as long time as you need if you feel rusty. It takes some time to get ready for the host matching (it's less than the technical interview)  but it's worth it of course.
