I have been living and working in Germany since 1985 and I have never filed a US tax return.聽 I have attempted聽 to contact the IRS, but they do not聽 respond聽 back. Can anyone advise me how I can file a US tax return from Germany?

Appreciate聽 any help.

Peace Out

Wouldn't this topic, how to submit a USA tax return from abroad, be better placed in the USA forum?
It has nothing to do with Germany.

I have posted multiple threads about this subject on this site. It is complex and of course only interesting for US persons. If you want, send me a direct message and we can set up a Facebook video chat and I can try to guide you through the subject.

Someone else posted a link to the IRS official site which of course has forms and information. But it is actually complex for one to have an overview and even to know what to look for if they don't know much about the subject. I have to say up front that I am not a lawyer or CPA but studied Finance in the States and have lived and filed US taxes from Germany for decades. I can give a good overview but not certified legal advice.
