    epassporte income taxable?

    This may seem like a stupid question so bear with me. If I am an American residing in Europe and an american client pays me via epassporte to my epassporte account, is the income still taxable? or has it in effect been "offshored"?

    any income you earn world wide as a US Citizen is taxable. get an accountant before you go to jail.

        you are always liable for taxes in your country of residence if they have an income tax. you make money... you pay taxes.

          Try online accounting/bookkeeping sites to keep your books in order so you don't get fucked WHEN (not if) the taxman comes knocking, try http://www.sbsuite.com

            ePassporte is no different than any other sponsor payout -- if your sponsor is a US company they will probably 1099 you anyway.

                  Anyone seriously attempting to take the above advice - DON'T. Every salvo put forth is incorrect.

                    This, unfortunately, is true. BUT if you get a good accountant without the flim flam offshore stuff, you'd be okay.
