Some governments will offer an "official opinion". Basically you explain your situation to one of their members of staff, who will then reply with how to declare it on the tax form.
If you declare what they say, and it turns out to be wrong, they won't punish you for it.
- bombcar 3y agoThere is something similar in the US called (iirc) an "IRS Letter" - which is basically the IRS saying how they interpret the law. It is not binding, because they may be wrong. As long as you act in good faith, you can disagree and could end up in tax court or in real court, and the IRS could lose. If you're not in the "make wage, pay tax" basic group, you will want to seriously investigate the tax advantages available to you, and how to take advantage of them.
