There are tax treaties with most (all?) countries whereby you receive a US tax credit. In the case of the UK I believe even National Insurance contributions can be counted towards Social Security.
- morgante 10y agoYou receive some credits and deductions but the statement that "not a dime of the remote worker's income will reach american shores" is objectively and supremely false. The IRS brings in huge sums of money from Americans living abroad every year.
