US tax preparation for American expats in Germany
-
Confused by US and German Tax Rules?
Between my Einkommensteuererklärung and US taxes, I feel stuck in two systems and unsure what to do next. -
Double taxation worries
I’m worried I’ll be taxed twice—once by the IRS and again by the Finanzamt. -
Filing FBAR and FATCA reports
I didn’t realize I had to report my German bank accounts to the US Treasury. -
Confusion about residency rules
I’ve been in Germany for years, but I still don’t know if I count as a US tax resident. -
Missed or incorrect filings from previous years
I think I made mistakes on past returns, but I’m afraid to fix them and trigger penalties. -
Handling self-employment or freelance income
I freelance in Germany, but I don’t know how to report that to the IRS. -
Tax treatment of German pensions and social security
Will my German pension affect my US taxes — or worse, trigger penalties? -
Not knowing when or how to file
The German and US tax systems are so different, I don’t even know where to start. -
Fear of IRS penalties or audits
What if the IRS penalizes me for something I didn’t even know I had to file?
