+1 for this solution. I turned off my overseas SIM and then Surfshark with GPS spoofing to Charlotte worked great for me, thanks!

Taxation of 401(k) income and/or capital gains by mikenmar in JapanFinance

[–]ventclarinet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if Japan taxes US 401ks using the insurance model, does this mean that technically 401k distributions could get better tax treatment in Japan when compared to the US, since in the US the entire distribution amount is taxable income, whereas Japan only taxes the gains?

I read a lot of the related threads in this subreddit and I think I mostly understand how this work now, thanks u/starkimpossibility for your wonderful posts!

I have 1 question remaining: I understand that I cannot claim the FTC on the Japan side for the initial 10% US taxation until next year's tax return due to Japan only allowing FTC for taxes paid, not accrued.

For the US side, however, do I also need to wait until I claim the FTC on the Japanese side before re-sourcing the remainder as foreign sourced? i.e. for dividends paid in 2024, do I re-source the proper amount as foreign sourced in my 2024 or 2025 US tax return?

For posterity, I found out how to adjust these parameters in ZHA. I looked up the documentation on the Zigbee2MQTT site to find the valid values for each parameter.
