https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/us-citizen-making-us-money-while-living-in-another-country/01/659054#M266048 <P>I see many questions about a US citizen making foreign money while abroad, but its difficult to find the answer about a citizen still making US money. Overall, i'd like to know how the tax situation would work if I were to move to Brazil with my wife, but continue to work remotely for my current US located and based company. Brazil has no tax treaty with the US, so I wouldn't be protected as far as I know from double taxation. For this example, let's say I'd be making under 100k. I understand I'd still have to file in both countries, but the Foreign Earned Income Credit applies to earning foreign money, not US money.</P> Thu, 06 Jun 2019 09:24:15 GMT dagreatone13 2019-06-06T09:24:15Z https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/us-citizen-making-us-money-while-living-in-another-country/01/659054#M266048 <P>I see many questions about a US citizen making foreign money while abroad, but its difficult to find the answer about a citizen still making US money.
