EDMONTON, Alberta â" Â A Canadian judge will rule Friday whether to extradite a Canadian man to the United States on charges that he helped coordinate Tunisian jihadists believed responsible for separate suicide attacks in Iraq in 2009 that killed five American soldiers outside a U.S. base and seven people at an Iraqi police complex.
Sayfildin Tahir Sharif, a 40-year-old Canadian citizen and Iraqi national, was arrested in Edmonton, Alberta in 2011 on a U.S. warrant. Sharif has been fighting extradition to federal court in Brooklyn.
His lawyer, Bob Aloneissi, argued in final submissions Tuesday that the prosecution provided no clear evidence that Sharif helped support a terrorist group.
The prosecution contends that evidence from intercepted Internet and phone conversations shows that Sharif was directly involved in supporting terrorists who conducted the suicide bombing.
Question by StephenWeinstein: Does the "world" include the space station or only the earth, for purposes of income taxes? When the U.S. says that its citizens that leave the country must continue to pay tax on all their income from anywhere in the world or on the total of their worldwide income, does the word "world" or "worldwide" mean that this requirement applies only to income from earth and that astronauts do not have to pay tax on the income that they receive for work done in space? Best answer for Does the "world" include the space station or only the earth, for purposes of income taxes?:
Answer by the tax lady
The rule is you have to come under another country's taxing authority for the 330 day test to apply. Space wouldn't count, neither does Antartica or on the open sea.

Funny question :) Actually since the astronauts will be paid by a company on earth, and the government wants their tax money, they will still have to pay taxes even when working at the Space Station.
Answer by dusty_titus
Of Course, since they're still employees of the country (USA?) that put them on the space station - they'll have to pay taxes. Two things are certain in this life - Death and Taxes!
Answer by tro
their 'tax' home is where they work and if there are short periods of time they are working elsewhere, regardless of where, they are still taxed on their total income they could have some 'away from home' expenses that might help them but as yet I don't think Starbucks has an outer space location
Answer by shoredude2
The US taxes all income unless specifically exempted by law. No law exempts income earned while in outer space. The term "worldwide income" is used to show that income earned outside the United States isn't automatically exempt. So yes, NASA astronauts still pay tax while working in space.
Answer by travelguruette
They work in space sometimes but they are being paid by a US company so they have to pay taxes.
