US Expat Tax Returns
Living abroad doesn't end your US filing obligation. We keep you compliant and make sure you aren't taxed twice on the same income.
Overview
US Expat Tax Returns, done properly
US citizens and green card holders must file a US return on worldwide income no matter where they live. The rules around exclusions, credits, and foreign reporting are unforgiving, and honest mistakes get expensive.
We prepare expat returns end to end — applying the foreign earned income exclusion, foreign tax credits, and treaty positions correctly so your US liability is as low as the law allows.
Every engagement is backed by our accuracy commitment and handled with strict confidentiality.

Questions
US Expat Tax Returns FAQs
Yes. US citizens and green card holders file on worldwide income regardless of residence. The good news is exclusions and credits usually eliminate or sharply reduce what you actually owe.
It lets qualifying expats exclude a substantial amount of foreign-earned wages from US tax. Qualifying depends on your residence or physical presence abroad — we confirm which test you meet.
There are streamlined IRS procedures designed exactly for this. We reconstruct the missing years and bring you current, frequently without penalties.
Expats generally receive an automatic extension to June 15, and can extend further. Tax owed still accrues interest from April, so we plan for that.
