For US citizens living abroad:
"One tax break for expatriates is the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion. If an American moves abroad, he or she can exclude foreign-earned income up to $100,800 as of 2015 from U.S. taxation. To qualify, that person must have lived outside the United States for 330 days in 12 consecutive months, said Wilson, a partner in the Denver law firm of Holland & Hart.
That means an expatriate making $75,000 overseas would pay no taxes, although he or she still must file IRS Form 1040 and claim the exclusion. If the expatriate makes $105,000, tax must be paid on the difference between his or her salary and $100,800, or $4,200. But if the expatriate visits the United States for more than 35 days in that period, the benefit is lost."
