Webinar: Structuring U.S. Investments by Foreign Taxpayers Instructor: Patrick McCormick, JD, LLM CPE Credits: 1.5 Tax (Federal Tax) Zoom Link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/85807917664?pwd=VDBDK0c4QVFGRWNKMHU3VUIzS2dIdz09 Description The United States imposes a multitude of tax requirements on United States taxpayers with foreign investments, whether through information reporting requirements or, in the case of foreign corporations, immediate inclusions for what otherwise would be deferred income. Rather curiously by juxtaposition, foreign taxpayers making investments in the United States often find favorable tax provisions, including exemptions from the tax for many capital gains items. However, it is critical to properly structure United States investments by foreign taxpayers, looking at relevant considerations and standard techniques.
Learning Objectives:
- Recognize Effectively Connected Income (ECI)
- Recognize the basic structure of US income tax treaties
- Recall how foreign trusts are taxed
- Recognize common ownership structures
