Expats face additional issues when it comes to wills and estate planning, as well as planning for possible elder care issues such as dementia and Alzheimer's. Medical facilitators are another area where expats' well-being can be jeopardized in the case of unethical or incompetent providers.Chapter 12, Computer Security, addresses this critical topic, including matters such as password management, two-factor authentication needed to access bank and financial accounts, VPNs, and backing up your data.Chapter 13, Identity Theft & Medical Billing Problems, outlines steps to take to prevent identity theft - expats are more vulnerable to these problems by virtue of distance; it's much more difficult to address the consequences of identity theft from outside the U.S. Topics addressed include medical identity theft and income tax return fraud, and steps to take if you are a victim of identity theft.Chapters 14 and 15 delve into the intricacies of U.S. income tax law, including the foreign earned income exclusion, the foreign tax credit, self-employment taxes, foreign bank account and asset reporting, and state income tax issues such as domicile, working remotely online for a U.S. company, driver's license, voter registration and international driver's licenses.
