谢谢Monfucius的回复。我也查了查,好像确实如此。要想不交美国税,要申请Foreign
Earned Income Exclusion 或者 Foreign Tax Credit。要Exlusion,需要满足bona
fide residence test 或 physical presence test。要credit,必须在你工作的国家
(如中国)也要交税。下面几个链接或许有用:

你应该找的是:Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN)
Authenticating Taxpayer Assistance Centers,这里certify护照原件并当天退回。
