Do you know how much expats have to pay just to align their taxes and file? Only country to tax on citizenship. It’s ridiculous that it’s even allowed internationally.
What’s weird is you didn’t even click the link or even seem to read my comment:
If you are a U.S. citizen or a resident alien of the United States and you live abroad, you are taxed on your worldwide income. However, you may qualify to exclude your foreign earnings from income up to an amount that is adjusted annually for inflation ($107,600 for 2020, $108,700 for 2021, $112,000 for 2022, and $120,000 for 2023). In addition, you can exclude or deduct certain foreign housing amounts.
America has bigger problems than migrant workers in other countries who make well North of six figures.
You’re not getting any pity from the average American over “filing fees” when you can do that shit on TurboTax.
You still need to file… It’s complex as shit. It’s not an easy filing with turbo tax when you have a company, partners who are not dual citizens etc. I’m by no means rich but I shouldn’t have to file taxes where I’m not residing. And if I wanted to get rid of my citizenship it’s also expensive and you have to have filed for the past 7 years. It’s not about pity. It’s about what is ethical. And being the only country to do this it isn’t ethical.
