Good afternoon.

I have a client, dual citizen (Italy and US) that works for the Italian Consulate in Miami (Italian Foreign Affairs Ministry) and this is my first time with this kind of payer.

She receives a payroll that shows Social Security coverage under the Italian Office (INPS).

Where do I have to report the income for tax purposes (is she subject? Italy did not apply theirs). Where to report the social security paid in Italy? Is she allowed to deduct expenses? I know that she can't file Schedule C but at the consulate they told her she can deduct all her expense. Is it true? I am dubious.

Thank for your help
