Sigh…why is the US like this? I just want to leave and never come back - why do I have to pay taxes when I will never return? Didn’t we literally fight a war to stop double taxation? LMAO so dystopian
Unfortunately, U.S. taxation is citizenship-based, so you're more than likely required to file if you've been earning income from anywhere in the world.
Im fighting to come back home from overseas with my wife and might never have the chance to, i would do anything to come home you have no Idea how blessed you are
You're right, cash gifts are normally not taxable (they can be to the person giving the gift!) As we mentioned, income is considered to be any amount of earnings, including money that is given to you throughout the calendar year from any country in the form of salary, investment income, rental income, and unemployment benefits. Key word is earnings here 😊

I am a US citizen retired 68 years old and my wife is a Mexican Citizen and I just move to Mexico do I have to file for 2021 taxes I'm only getting Social Security total income was about 14000
Hi Javier! It depends on how you are filing. If you are planning to file Married Filing Separately you'd need to file with just $5 of income! I'd suggest reading through this guide to decide which filing status is right for you. Of course, our experts can always help you decide as well! www.myexpattaxes.com/expat-tax-guide/basics-of-us-expat-taxes/
You'll need to report pension income on your US tax return along with social security benefits to see if any US tax applies. Nevada has no income tax while California does.

If you are a U.S. citizen or resident, it is generally required by law to file a federal tax return with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) each year, reporting your income and paying any taxes owed. Failing to file your U.S. taxes can have various consequences, such as Failure to File Penalty. Learn more here: www.irs.gov/payments/failure-to-file-penalty
Hi id like to ask we are US citizens living abroad since 2019 and our combined income for 2020 is less than $5k. Should we still file a tax? Without w2’s? And if we dont file, are we still eligible for future stimulus check? I hope u answer thank u.
I am married, my wife is Polish, we were married outside America. I have not sent paper work to states that we are married because we don't live there, we live in Europe and Asia. How would I do the taxes in the states as they (America) do not know that I am married? Can I file as single. Also, if I have a 1099 that is 3500, and I made 13,000 usd over seas, how does the 12,400 work? Last, does your program work for state taxes. I have my mail forward to my friends place, I have never lived there, it's just where mail is being forward.

hi, I was born in Germany and my father is American. The consulate is currently checking whether I have been a citizen since birth. If this is the case and I subsequently get citizenship from birth, do I have to file my first tax return and an FBAR for 2020 next year? Or do I still have to do it retrospectively for the past few years?
Hi Phillip, if you found out you have US citizenship by birth, you are an "Accidental American"and need to become fully tax compliant. In order to become fully tax compliant as an Accidental American, you will need to file your current year’s taxes and 3 years of back taxes. We are currently running an offer on our Streamlined Procedure that can help you get back on track. However, in order to complete and file your tax forms, you will require a Social Security Number. If you already have one - great! Here's more info on what to do if you're an Accidental American: www.myexpattaxes.com/expat-tax-tips/accidental-american/accidental-americans-tax-compliant/
Hello, I have lived in Europe for several years and would like to take part in the steamlined fopreign offshore proceedure. I therfore need to file the last three years of tax returns.

Hi, you can read the response we gave below to Desiree.

I do receive social security with my pension. Does Nevada tax pensions
Is it possible to file the FBAR using an android smart phone?or only on lap or PC?
Liked and subbed. American in Qatar Ugh
Thanks!! 😀
Ms. Nice looking,
If I had received a pension from California, do have to pay any taxes if I am a resident of Nevada.
You'll need to report pension income on your US tax return along with social security benefits to see if any US tax applies. Nevada has no income tax while California does.
