This happened to me, last year--it was an unpleasant surprise, at the time. After flying a segment, I was able to get the ticket reissued in the US as an electronic ticket; however, all of the tax info was separately printed out and handed to me with the warning, "Don't lose this piece of paper with the tax details, especially if you intend on making any changes."
