I lived in Germany for four years (2001 to 2005) and contributed to my Roth IRA every year. My pay was deposited into a US bank account, I was paid in US dollars and I DID pay US income tax every year. You are required to to have W2 reported income equal to or greater than the amount you deposit in your Roth IRA ($4000 per person per year right now). If you are trying to get out of US taxes and still contribute to your IRA it may be trickier. Good luck! |
