Will I Pay Income Tax In The Philippines From My U.S. Pension?

I am a US citizen born in the Philippines. If I wanted to be a dual citizen, will I pay income tax in the Philippines from my pension in USA?

Hi. My expertise is limited to Social Security benefits, not tax laws. All I can tell you is that since you are a U.S. citizen you can still collect your U.S. Social Security benefits even if you move to the Philippines.

Best, Jerry
