As a US expat, there are two main tax benefits available to reduce your US tax balance and avoid double taxation. In this episode, we discuss one of those benefits, the Foreign Tax Credit (FTC).

We will discuss how the foreign tax credit works, the various "buckets" in which different income sources fall, what kind of foreign taxes are eligible to be used, and how it works in combination with the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (FEIE).
