I heard that the 1st $125,000 was tax exempt but I have no basis for knowing. Thanks,
You may be referring to the exemption from taxable income of up to $120,000 in 2023 for income earned while working in a foreign country. In general, to qualify you must be a citizen or resident of the foreign country you are working in or be physically present there for 330 days out of a consecutive 12 month period of time.
