Pakistan
Residents of Pakistan temporarily in the United States are exempt from U.S.
income tax on certain income they may receive. To be entitled to this exemption,
they must be in the United States only as students at a recognized university,
college, or school, or as recipients of grants, allowances, or awards from
religious, charitable, scientific, or educational organizations of Pakistan
primarily to study or research. The income exempt in these cases is any payment
from abroad for maintenance, education, or training, and any pay for personal
services of not more than $5,000 for any tax year.
Other residents of Pakistan who are temporarily in the United States for no more
than 1 year are exempt from U.S. income tax on pay of not more than $6,000
received for that period, including pay from the enterprise or organization of
which they are employees or with which they are under contract. To qualify for
this exemption, they must be employees of, or under contract with, a Pakistani
enterprise or religious, charitable, scientific, or educational organization and
be in the United States only to acquire technical, professional, or business
experience from a person other than that enterprise or organization.
Also exempt from U.S. income tax on certain income are residents of Pakistan
temporarily in the United States under an arrangement with the U.S. Government,
or any of its agencies or instrumentalities, only for study, training, or
orientation. They are exempt from tax on income of not more than $10,000 for
services directly related to their training, study, or orientation, including
income from their employer abroad.
