Managing your tax obligations can be complicated for US expats. As a US citizen living abroad, you still have to file a US tax return, and you may have to pay local taxes in your country of residence, too. Fortunately, the IRS and local governments have put provisions in place to help alleviate this burden. Knowing about and claiming these provisions is the key to saving money as an American living overseas, as they can not only help reduce or even eliminate your US tax bill, but sometimes you can even claim a refund you didn't know about!
