    Who pays taxes?

    I'm earning less than 10k a month, do I still have to file for taxes?

    yeah but do i have to pay?
    in the states if you dont earn over x amount, you dont pay so was just wondering if it was the same here.

    The basic individual allowance here is $100,000 - if you make more than that per year, you have to pay tax. I think that even if you make less than that, you still have to file a return at the end of the year, to tell them that you don't owe them anything...

    No liability, I am not an accountant, contact the tax people for formal advice, etc. etc. etc.

    There are variables but I would be surprised if you do and if you do, it will be very minimal.
