I don't know if it's something I would like to pursue searching. Have fun...I think they have online procedures now to check your account. Not just sure as to the extent of what's possible.

For U.S. tax purposes, you are subject to income tax on your worldwide (read - all) income. If you file a tax return and paid income taxes on your earnings in the philippines, you can claim a credit on it against your u.s. taxes. In addition to U.S. income taxes, you have to pay self-employment (i.e., social security/FICA) taxes at 15.3% on your net consulting income (pls do a search of FICA taxes or go to wikipedia for the same subject.) Your case may not be simple so I suggest you seek a competent tax professional that is knowledgeable in U.S. taxes. Good luck.
