It took you an hour? How learning challenged you are. It is as easy as writing, "I am proficient in six languages."

On the FICA tax: In Pub 54, chapter 2, page 10:

In general, U.S. social security and Medicare taxes do not apply to wages for services you perform as an employee outside the United States unless one of the following exceptions applies.

There are four exceptions: 1) you worked on an American ship or aircraft, 2) you are working in one of the countries with which the United States has entered into a bilateral social security agreement, 3) You are working for an American employer, 4) You are working for a foreign affiliate (de-fined later) of an American employer.

Working in China as a teacher or any job not connected to the US means you don't need to pay FICA tax.

Self employment, the 15%, is due if you are self employed.

BTW Any pension, Social Security, or disability money you get needs to be direct deposited in a US bank account IF you are in China. Get an ATM card, MC or Visa, and you can get your money in China.

When I got my first SS check it was nearly $10K BOA told me it would take 2 years to clear because US Government checks have a picture of the Statue of Liberty on them.

Next day I bought a bag of Lay's potato chips with a picture of Lady Liberty on it. I bought another bag, went back to BOA and handed it to the lady who told me of the 2 year wait and told her not to eat them for 2 years.
