PP108-
Not sure how much you will be making, but you can probably exclude some of that income from taxes. The IRS now allows up to $80,000 of foreign income to be deducted from US tax liability. I am sure there are probably other ways to get even more deductions, but this is the simplest method.
Here is the IRS website with some of the information. Its for returns in the year 2002, but I am sure it will be similar for 2003. Couldn't find info for 2003, it might not have been released yet.
http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p54.pdf Page 11 has much information of this deduction.
Good luck
