This can create a problem because <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/filing\/status\/expat-tax-rules-for-u-s-citizens-working-overseas\/\">American expats pay U.S. income taxes<\/a> <em>in addition to<\/em> what they may pay abroad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why? Because the U.S. is one of the few countries in the world that taxes based on citizenship, not place of residency. This policy led to some expats paying taxes twice \u2014 once in the U.S. and once in their country of residence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While certain tools like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/income\/foreign\/foreign-earned-income-exclusion-for-u-s-expats\/\">Foreign Earned Income Exclusion<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/filing\/credits\/foreign-tax-credit-limitations-rules-for-u-s-expats\/\">Foreign Tax Credit<\/a> helped alleviate this, there were still some sticky situations \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/country\/united-kingdom\/u-s-expat-taxes-in-the-united-kingdom\/\">U.S. citizens living in the United Kingdom<\/a>, for example, ran into trouble when it came to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/country\/united-kingdom\/u-k-pensions-for-u-s-expats\/\">pension taxation<\/a>. To solve those situations, the U.S. entered into individual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/filing\/how-u-s-tax-treaties-help-taxpayers\/\">tax treaties<\/a>. The main purpose of these tax treaties is to solve the double-taxation issue, and the United States\u2019 treaty with the United Kingdom is no different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The U.S.\/U.K. tax treaty\u2014formally known as the \u201cConvention between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with respect to Taxes on Income and on Capital Gains\u201d\u2014also addresses tax evasion, income taxes, and capital gains taxes between the two countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-else-should-you-know-about-the-united-states-united-kingdom-tax-treaty\">What else should you know about the United States \u2013 United Kingdom tax treaty?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know the basics of the United States \u2013 United Kingdom tax treaty, we can get a bit more into specifics that affect U.S. expats. Within the tax treaty are specific provisions addressing individual tax concerns. While there are more than a dozen provisions, the ones that can affect Americans in the U.K. the most are the Saving Clause and Article 17 \u2013 U.S. taxation on U.K. pensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-saving-clause\">Saving Clause<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many U.S. tax treaties have what\u2019s known as a Saving Clause. The Saving Clause essentially states that a country may tax its citizens as if the treaty never existed. As a result, it renders most provisions of the treaty ineffective for Americans living in the U.K., but leaves them open for U.K. citizens living in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one reason you should get familiar with the Foreign Tax Credit (FTC) \u2014 so that if you need to, you can claim it against British taxes paid. The FTC is generally possible because of the exceptions to the Saving Clause. For most treaties, the paragraph immediately following the Saving Clause details the exceptions to the clause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-article-17-u-s-taxation-on-u-k-pensions\">Article 17 \u2014 U.S. taxation on U.K. pensions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So, how do U.K. pensions work for U.S. expats? One treaty benefit is that, contributions to a pension in the U.K. can be tax-deferred, just like your U.S. 401k and other tax-deferred retirement vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though distributions are generally taxable, the double taxation article will help prevent you from paying taxes twice. Another perk of the tax treaty is that it allows your social security (U.K. state pension) to only be taxable in the country they are residing in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-claim-u-s-u-k-tax-treaty-benefits\">How to claim U.S.\/U.K. tax treaty benefits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some situations you might run into where\u2014despite all the exclusions and other treaty benefits\u2014you may be double-taxed on income. For example, let\u2019s say you\u2019re employed by a British company and live and work in England. Your employer sends you to the U.S. for a business trip, and because income received for services performed in the U.S. is considered U.S. income, you\u2019d owe U.S. taxes on the income you earned while stateside. Article 24 of the U.S.\/U.K. tax treaty, for example, would help alleviate this particular situation. To claim it, you\u2019d file <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/forms\/form-8833\/\">Form 8833<\/a> with your tax return and include your situation in the summary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you run out and file this form, talk to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/expat-tax-preparation-and-services\/\">Tax Advisor<\/a>. The majority of U.S.\/U.K. tax benefits you get from treaties don\u2019t have to be claimed with Form 8833. You\u2019d only have to file if provisions in the current tax treaty trump or change a provision of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) in order to reduce taxes owed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"325\" src=\"https:\/\/hrbcomlnp.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/us-citizen-living-in-uk-tax-return.jpeg\" alt=\"Female U.S. expat in London who benefits from the UK US tax treaty \" class=\"wp-image-314\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hrbcomlnp.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/us-citizen-living-in-uk-tax-return.jpeg 650w, https:\/\/hrbcomlnp.hrblock.com\/expat-tax-preparation\/resource-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/us-citizen-living-in-uk-tax-return-300x150.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-need-help-claiming-u-k-tax-treaty-benefits-ready-to-file-your-u-s-taxes-get-help-from-the-experts-at-h-r-block\">Need help claiming U.K. tax treaty benefits?
