Default Re: IRS

You must declare your worldwide income on you 1040 and pay US tax in full. You have two options for the UK tax on UK source pensions.

1) File a UK self assessment and use foreign tax credits to offset the UK tax due and claim back any tax withheld.

2) As you are a US resident and a UK non-resident you can use the treaty so that your pensions are not taxed in the UK and there is no withholding.

Most people choose the second option.

The US should not give credit for UK tax paid in error, any tax overpayment needs to be claimed back from HMRC.
