Brazil tax on US retirement income

3 years ago
If an American citizen gains permanent residency in Brazil, one presumably assumes the responsibility to pay Brazilian income tax. My question is if American Social Security and pension income is taxed. If so, it appears that the top marginal tax rate, 27.5 %, is considerably higher than American rates for persons of even modest income. Is my understanding correct? Thanks in advance.
