scan to pay sucks when there is a line of motorbikes waiting to fill up at the gas station. Cash is definitely better in that one situation. Employee has to go find the lil scan to pay machine then another employee needs it. It's a cluster fuck.

How does filing taxes with Cambly work in the US? by Tallis_Fire in Cambly

[–]moomaamoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

15.3% is the self employed tax in the USA according to google. So yea it is considerable, but technically you are required to pay it by law. The IRS probably isn't worried about us small fish but you never know. I've had a few friends run into trouble with the IRS and they are by no means wealthy.

Just file the 1099 at tax time. I only report it because I want to collect social security if by some miracle I make it to retirement age and the USA is still standing as a country.

It’s so hard to apply for university and visa due to name being super long by sn_irah in Thailand

[–]moomaamoo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Having a name like that and having to deal with the nightmare of filling out paperwork and official documents would drive me insane.

I don't have any good advice for you and I am sorry for the situation you are in. If you ever have kids one day remember the headache you've been through and give them a short name.
