On mobile, so I'm sorry for the formatting issues.

For context, I work as a freelance translator. I was approached by a new client to provide services for them, but they are insisting that because I am a US citizen that I need to provide a W-9 with an American address, even though I am a perminant resident of Switzerland, because otherwise their QuickBooks will reject it. (For the record, I have been a perminant resident here since December and have my residence card.)

Before I give them anything (maybe my mother's address? Idk), my concern is that my income will be reported to the government under her address in Michigan. Wouldn't that also open me to liability for state and city taxes as well?

Certainly a US citizen working abroad isn't such an unusual thing that QuickBooks has a workaround...?

Thanks for any insight you can provide! I want this account, but I also NEED to make sure I don't incur any penalties. Thank you!
