US has tax treaties with many european countries, Germany is one of them. Which means you can transfer your money to your US account and pay a reduced tax or in some cases no tax at all depending on the source of the income. I don't know what form you fill out as I live in Canada, but you could ask your bank as they will be receiving the money in from a bank transfer from Germany, if this is the case.
