[H-GEN] Working for a USA company from my Australian

[Craig Cook]

Not having a social security number or an easy way to get one is going to be an issue.

I have worked in the US on a H1-B visa.  Had to go to the Social Security office to get a temporary number.  Your real card is mailed later.

After you get your social, you can get a bank account, drivers license etc.  That does not really apply to you though.

Technically, if the US company does employ you, they will need to work out how to pay you ;)

If you are not actually living in the US I am not sure if they will tax you since you are not a US citizen.

If you live and get paid in Aus, they will want their tax.

Good luck!
