As I sent out my IRS form today, I realized JET is expensive as hell.
How expensive you may ask?
Let’s just say that stupid IRS form was $85.
Yes, that’s right. Eight five dollars.
Of course, I didn’t have to file it. I mean, I could just be taxed to hell while in Japan. But what sense would that make?
I’ve already spent 59 dollars on background checks (three, because I did not get ED and I had to get another one)
Let’s not forget all the other costs involved like mailing paperwork out (god, I must be at like 70 dollars now) and driving (interviews) and all sorts of other stuff.
JET’s expensive folks. Remember that. This application costs money.
But it’s worth it.
