I generally understand the tax requirements for the US and Ireland. I'm familiar with the tax treaty and the options to avoid double taxation. At high level, it sounds like I'll pay higher taxes in Ireland on distributions from my US based retirement accounts (401K, Investments, etc.) but get some credit back for the Irish tax when filing my US return. In my thinking, I'll be paying incrementally higher taxes (Ireland) minus the US tax. Is this in the ball park of accurate? I'm guessing Ireland will see US Social Security as regular income in regards to tax? Thx
