Bev, Giant Panda, Mas Jen;
thank you for the replies.

i have just come across 'foreign income exclusion'. anyone know how this works exactly? is everybody who is an expat entitled to this? My income is in USD and i have 2 children.

My company is offering 'tax equalization', but if 'foreign income exclusion' is real. i wouldnt pay any taxes....a bit confused.

thanks for all your help!
