Bill Limits Exemption On Foreign Earned Income Taxation
The Technical Changes Act of 1953 signed by the President restricts the foreign earned income exemption to 20 000 dollars per year for individuals abroad 17 of 18 months. Earnings above that are taxed. The change aims to curb abuse while continuing to promote foreign employment of U S technicians. The act also extends estate tax exemptions for service members killed in combat and offers a grain storage facility amortization provision.
