Hey everyone,
I hope this is the correct place to post a question like this. I've done an extensive Google search and haven't had a huge amount of luck on this. I only found out recently that if you're a US citizen living abroad, you still have to file tax returns. I have been living in NZ full-time since Feb 2021, so I imagine I will have some outstanding tax debt to pay if I decide to return to the US to live.
My main question is.... is there any place I can find out how much tax I actually owe? I'm not going to pay the huge number of private companies $$$$ just so they can overcharge me. Surely I should be able to have some IRS portal where you put in your SS and it generates this information? Or is it a case of filing a late tax return from abroad and then seeing what comes up?
Hope someone can help
cheers
