Taxes, health insurance, etc. in Japan and the U.S.

I currently hold US citizenship. To take care of my parents at home, I am an employee of an American company, but I am planning to move to Japan in the next year or so to work remotely for a few years.
So I have a few questions and would appreciate it if anyone knows anything about this. First, I am planning to cancel my health insurance through my company. ？

Is the income for joining the Japanese National Health Insurance based on the calculation that I have no income in Japan? ？ If I use my income in the U.S. as a guide, the premiums may be high.

If anyone is familiar with this situation and would be willing to share links to information, I would appreciate it.

You are a dual citizen, aren't you?
Uninsured is a penalty in the U.S. ＄ The 700 changes every year, so I'm not certain of the amount, but you are obligated to pay it.

Insurance in Japan is not so expensive if you have no income, but maybe 16,000 yen plus nursing care insurance premiums.

Just take a look and you'll see what I mean.

As you said, I googled
Non-residents are not covered by Obamacare
But it's impossible to get medical care in the US if you get sick, so there's no point in having insurance

Whether you have citizenship or not, if you work in Japan as a Japanese, there's no way you have no income.

＃ not 3 ？ I'm sorry to deny everything, but...

If you work in Japan as a Japanese citizen with citizenship,
you can't avoid filing taxes in Japan
and in the US because you are a US citizen.

↑ I always have trouble with you because you are always incapable of reading.

US citizens have obligations no matter where in the world they work.
I'm not talking about taxation, I'm talking about
what happens if an American citizen works in a foreign country.

I'm not talking about taxation, I'm talking about what happens to US citizens who work abroad. I'm talking about what happens to US citizens who work abroad.
what happened to the 70 year old drivers license renewal.
can you do it online ？

If you don't have any income in the US, you don't need to apply for a tax return in the US
No wonder you're such an adult!

I am in a similar situation, based in Japan. I am staying in Japan with residency status.

As others have said, Non Resident is not subject to the penalty for not having health insurance.


National Health Insurance premiums are determined by your income in Japan in the previous year.
We also report zero income in Japan because our income is derived from a U.S. corporation that we operate ourselves. The annual premium is 15,000 yen.
I put that in the remarks column on my Japanese tax return, and I am prepared to submit my U.S. tax return whenever there are instructions to do so, but so far I have not received any requests to do so.

How do you live?

# Unless your salary is deposited in a Japanese bank and the government knows about it, it is treated as no income.
You are trying to evade taxes.

15 I only wrote the facts.

It's not up to the person who wrote it to decide if it's fact or not.
Only the person who reads it decides whether it is fact or not.

16 If a US citizen lives in Japan and files a tax return in Japan,
he is not obliged to file US taxes.

Americans are not exempt from filing taxes anywhere in the world.

＃ 13 ＃ 16

Citizenship holders are obligated to report their worldwide income, including Japanese income,
in the U.S., even if they do not reside in the U.S.
or have no income in the U.S.

19 Then where do you pay your taxes ？ ？
You've never paid taxes in the US.

Don't worry, just report it to the IRS
and go back to the country of the passport you have.

I wrote a real experience and you believe it or not. LOL

I see, idiots don't learn, so they seem to spend their old age in a bad way.

23 Whose ？

I'm sure it's your own hype, even though you wrote about your real experience.

It's not hype, but there's no way to check hype posts to make yourself look bigger.
