Correct me if I'm wrong, but after that $100K deduction you're essentially paying the higher of the local tax, or the US tax?
- jmadsen 12y agoyou are paying BOTH - another reason this is an issue. expats pay tax on full amount to host country, plus tax on amount over $92k to US. So the money over $92K is double taxed - making it "pointless" (not completely, obviously) to earn that extra
