Quite a few countries are fine if your income is a WFH job even if the company is US based. As long as that income is at or above whatever level they set you're generally fine on that front even if you're not like a researcher or something.

So, if you can snag a stable WFH job with decent enough income for your target country, that is also cool with you being in another country (it's more common than you might think) that could be your way out

I am but a pathetic laborer, "work from home" is a level of cushy shat I can only dream of with tears in my eyes.

Oh really? I wouldn't have guessed that. Do you have some examples?

Search for “digital nomad visa” plus the name of whatever country you might be interested in living in.

Thank you.

But you're still paying US taxes. A digital nomad visa isn't really leaving the US in the meaningful way the other poster was suggesting.

True, but it looks like you can get six months in many countries in which to keep your US job and look for local work (towards a residency).
