Quick question for the Americans working in China:
Are the taxes paid in China sufficient to avoid paying taxes to the US?
I have previous experience in India, where "I paid" 33% tax, and that was of course high enough to not have to pay taxes in the US.
Thanks!

The problem you may face is that tx is only paid while you are in country. On a domestic contract no problems, but with a lot of overseas layovers you may find the tax is significantly less that 45%. Especially if you leave the country during off days. I average around 16% total tax paid due to this
