Here is a thread on reddit. So.e dumbass trying to save a few pennies on feie. If I could actually work my night job from abroad I'd gladly pay full u.s. tax and not let anybody know about my residency abroad.
Foreign Earned Income Exclusion when secret digital nomad
I currently work a $150k W2 job in the US and use a VPN tunnel to digital nomad. working from out of the US is against company terms but again I have had no issues due to my hardware tunnel. Now here comes the annoying part. My job location for my company is officially the US. I have proof and a lease proving I am in a different country to meet FEIE. Would the IRS credit me back the withheld taxes? I know I need to talk to an accountant, and please dont lecture me on ethics and company policy. I just want to hear what yall have to say about this.
