If you hold a USA passport, then CReW will deduct normal US taxes (Federal, Social Security and Medicare). I does not matter where you live.
I you are a resident of another country, and a US Citizen, you get the first $105,000 (about) tax free and rest is taxed as if you made the whole amount.
But to get this "Foreign Earned Income Exemption" you need to file a tax return and get a refund.
Of course you can set extra exemptions on your W-4 to have less deducted
.
We have many different plans going for taxes depending on your accountant.
Get an accountant specializing in expat taxes, it will cost $400-800 per year but will save a ton on a long run, and keep you out of trouble.
