And? If you're that invested in another country, give up your US passport and get one with the new country. Alternatively, work to get the tax laws in the US changed. It's not like this stuff is a secret - if you want to work abroad you're going to get double taxed. Not paying the US portion of taxes is illegal. I don't understand the issue here, maybe you can explain it to me?
- firic 8y agoIt is not that simple to renounce US citizenship. As op wrote, if they think that you are renouncing because of taxes, they will flat out deny your request. Furthermore, changing tax law for an expat is virtually impossible because it is very hard to vote from abroad, and expats are very diverse so no one politician would care to represent them.
- ant6n 8y agoComplaining about laws/rules is 'working towards getting them changed'.

- perl4ever 8y agoWhat do you mean double taxed? If you get a tax credit for foreign taxes, it's rather disingenuous to claim to be double taxed, although you could argue it's true in the sense you file for multiple jurisdictions.
