Common questions
- I already paid UK tax — do I pay the IRS again?
- Usually not on the same income. The foreign tax credit offsets US tax with UK tax paid, and we reconcile it explicitly so you can see the math.
- What about my UK pension?
- The intake asks about pension contributions and growth; treatment depends on the US–UK treaty, and your preparer reviews it with you before filing.
