Topics Covered in This Webinar

If you are already engaged in U.S. busi­ness activ­i­ties or are expand­ing your Cana­di­an busi­ness to U.S. mar­kets, under­stand­ing your U.S. tax oblig­a­tions and effec­tive­ly man­ag­ing your poten­tial U.S. tax expo­sure is key to suc­cess­ful busi­ness results. The Canada‑U.S. income tax treaty con­tains many pro­vi­sions that can reduce poten­tial U.S. tax with­hold­ing or exempt your Cana­di­an busi­ness from U.S. tax­a­tion. Inad­e­quate busi­ness struc­ture may lead to dou­ble tax­a­tion and cost­ly mis­takes. In this webi­nar, we will pro­vide busi­ness own­ers and Cana­di­an busi­ness­es with key tools they can use to effec­tive­ly man­age their U.S. tax expo­sure by apply­ing treaty relief pro­vi­sions, where applic­a­ble.

 

Here’s just a sample of what we’ll cover during this webinar:

  • U.S. income tax treaty frame­work;
  • Prac­ti­cal U.S. state income and sales tax com­pli­ance con­sid­er­a­tions;
  • Eli­gi­bil­i­ty for treaty ben­e­fits (Lim­i­ta­tion on Ben­e­fits arti­cle);
  • Reduced with­hold­ing tax rates for pas­sive income (div­i­dend, inter­est, roy­al­ties);
  • U.S. per­ma­nent estab­lish­ment arti­cle (branch oper­a­tions);
  • Tax plan­ning and tax com­pli­ance tips and prac­ti­cal con­sid­er­a­tions;
  • … and more!
