Most employers, HR and payroll aren't willing to deal with taxes, labor laws ect across different countries.

I am really surprised that some employers are willing to go such great lengths.

Most don't ask questions. In my case I used my mom's address and lived abroad. When you file your taxes and you've been outside of the US for most of the year, you get all of your federal withholding refunded. I'm sure this would not stand up to scrutiny, but I did it for eight years and never had any trouble.
