Technically, this statement is not true. when there is aconflict between a treaty and tax law, the court first tries to reconcile the two. If it can not reconcile the two, then the one with the most current date rules. Therefore, a treaty does not always trump tax law.

| Re: Us or UK tax ?? Thanks Dean. Can you explain a little more about 'tax credit'? Sorry if that's an obvious question but I know nothing about taxes. << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |

| Us or UK tax ?? Hi - I am a UK citizen married to a UK citizen. I will be emigrating to the US soon but as I am a Web developer I will be keeping some of my UK clients and (hopefully) getting some US clients also. I envisage paying US tax as that would seem most straight forward but what do I need to do legally speaking about UK funds being paid into a UK bank and then tranfered to my US account? Where do I pay taxes on this income? Thanks in advance Steve << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |
