We don’t always think of taxes, especially U.S. taxes, when we go about our lives. Canadians may not think U.S. tax may be relevant to a transaction that they are about to close or to a life event they experience until it is too late. Life events and transactions are inevitable, such as the long-standing idiom that “the only certainty in life is death and taxes,” and some are unavoidable, but chosen, such as marriage, the birth of a child, starting a new job, buying a house, selling a house, or obtaining an education. Each of these life events may have tax implications that ultimately may adversely affect one’s tax liability. With proper planning and relevant knowledge, even basic sometimes, taxpayers may be able to take advantage of a more favorable tax treatment or achieve better tax results, for example, avoid double taxation. Even if your tax exposure may increase due to an unexpected life event, such as receiving an inheritance, understanding how to deal with these events can provide a significant benefit moving forward.Here is just a sample of what we will cover during this webinar:
- Recent update – IRS released new procedures providing relief for certain former U.S. citizens;
