We are conducting a project outside the USA. We are a British Virgin Island registered company but administer payroll from our USA office and obviously have an Federal EIN number. We wish to employ, as an employee, a non USA resident, who is a UK resident and citizen (not USA citizen), and he will physically only work outside the USA.
Is it correct that we can employ him as an employee, with related benefits such as health insurance, 401K, rather than as a contractor? Is it correct that no withholding tax, including social security, is to be deducted? Finally, should any particular forms be filed by him with us as employer, and/or any filings made with any US tax authorities?
Many thanks, Trevor
