Not enough info. If you earned the money while in the U.S. then you owe taxes on it. Talk to a tax lawyer.

Was the check from an employer or what? You dont give enough information. I doubt that the Country of Japan just decided to send you $8,000 dollars.

If it was income from a source in Japan, to Japan AND you have to report it on your US income tax return but will get a credit for any Japanese income tax paid. If it was a gift, nobody.

That depends upon what the check was for. Would need more details in order to answer the question correctly. Post those details and I'll give you the correct answer.

No body. Keep the money unless they take taxes off if they don't then don't offer it to them. 8,000 dollars is alot and you can most likely pay all your bills and upgrade some of your stuff with that money. JUST KEEP IT

That is very honest of you. You should call the IRS and ask them for the most concrete answer.

Dont do anything with it, until the check clears at the bank.
and then, save twenty percent to pay your taxes at the end of
the year, because jw has already spent it. <}:-})

Hillary of course.
In fact, endorse the back and send the whole check to her. She will decide which Dr. you will go to ... which Dentist you will go to ... when and if you need medicine and what type to prescribe. She will handle every single little detail of your life for you. CONGRATS!

That sounds pretty sketchy. Make sure it's not a scam.

claim it as income when you file taxes either the
usual yearly income taxes or fiscally for business
income.
