I am a US citizen who works overseas. You get to deduct your foreign tax obligations on your US tax returns (if you don&#x27;t go for the standard foreign income earned deduction). Oh, well, some &quot;taxes&quot; aren&#x27;t really taxes in the US sense, like taxes on health insurance, or what about social security contributions? And then there are weird situations where a US citizen goes on a business trip in the US and is on the hook for both Chinese and US taxes.<p>Believe me, US citizens working abroad and US companies doing business abroad suffer through similar pain when it comes time to file tax returns. Resolving differences in two completely different systems is very hard.
