Description
The U.S. taxation system requires the inclusion of income on a worldwide basis. This also entails that U.S. taxpayers report foreign assets such as bank and investment accounts, foreign trusts, mutual funds, foreign pensions, ownership in foreign companies, gifts, and in some cases ownership of rental real estate activity, etc.
Advisors must be aware of these reporting requirements to prevent the imposition of harsh penalties which generally start at $10,000 USD. This webinar provides a roadmap to any tax preparer that will assist in detecting assets to be reported and how to report them.
