Hi,

I'm in Brazil now and want to know if the tax treaty for social security and medicaid with the U.S. has been enforced. I don't want to have to pay double social security if I don't have to. Thanks!

also, how do you all pay Brazilian taxes? Do you just get an accountant?

all Brazilian taxes are done through a computer programme that you download from the receita federal website
