Hey everyone, welcome to The Truth About Travel Nursing Podcast. My name is Kyle Schmidt and I’m your host and this episode 18 of the podcast. In this episode, we’re going to discuss travel nursing tax issues. As we’ve discussed in previous episodes, travel nursing pay packages include a sizeable percentage of tax free money. So we’re going to take a look at why tax-free money exists in travel nursing, the advantages and disadvantages of tax free money, and how to qualify to receive the tax free money in the eyes of the IRS. All three of these issues are very important for travelers to consider. [Please note that this is a transcript of a podcast episode.
