  • Regardless of where they live, all US citizens and green card holders must file their tax returns in the United States on their worldwide income. Unless a treaty, statutory exception, or foreign tax credit applies to reduce their US tax burden to zero, they must pay taxes on such overseas income.
  • For tax purposes, you are considered as if you were a US citizen or a green card holder living outside the country.
