taxes for a Yank based overseas?

J

Jayford

This is a Q for you Americans trading full time overseas. If you do the full year thing outside of the States, does trading income allow the $80K exclusion even if you use a US broker? The income would actually be derived from the US.

Also, I thought you had to be paying taxes elsewhere to get this exclusion.

Please, only replies from those that have done this. Lots of incorrect replies on the tax stuff.

Thanks,

J
