American Expat - Stafford Loans with Nelnet - 0 AGI due to foreign income exclusion...

Youre an idiot.

You're creating a paper trail directly to you that anyone can follow. It's better to pay nothing forever and just disappear into NZ.

IBR can change. The foreign earned income exclusion can change. Look at those poor idiots of PSLF. If and when it does, they will know exactly where to find you, your spouse, your house, your bank accounts, and your heirs.

Most people who leave simply stop filing taxes and the government never comes looking because the IRS doesnt have the resources to answer the phone, let alone track down millions of overseas americans.

Did you know the US doesn't even keep records of Americans abroad? It's true. Every decade the voting authorities beg congress for money to track down or at least count all Americans abroad. And do you know what Congress says? NO. Too much money.

Lol, the best data the government has on americans abroad is some guestimate the UN has done, and by using the figure of how many Americans are born abroad (us citizens registering their kids births abroad) and multiplying that by X where X = the likeliness of americans being TOO LAZY or stupid to know the have to register their kids abroad.

No one would know you're abroad and your student loans could never find you, and you choose to tell the United State Government every single year.

It's beyond stupid bro.
