    This Gimme Some Truth episode explores the nuances of Roth conversion strategies for Americans abroad. For most Americans, the decision to roll over a Roth IRA is governed by the calculus of US Tax Rates and their age. However, many foreign countries either treat the Roth IRA like a traditional brokerage account or a traditional IRA. Therefore, Americans living abroad (or thinking about it) should proceed carefully and fully analyze how their prospective destination(s) will treat Roth IRAs and their withdrawals.

    Year-End Financial Planning: Tax Loss Harvesting for U.S. Expats & Americans Abroad

    Play Episode Listen Later Dec 16, 2022 39:34


    Year-end means many things: holidays, new year's resolutions, and plenty of holiday-themed foods, which necessitate certain new year's resolutions. But year-end in the financial world also means tax loss harvesting. In this episode, Stan Farmer, CFP, J.D., and Syl Michelin, CFA, explore the world of tax loss harvesting for U.S. expats and Americans abroad. In a sentence, tax loss harvesting simply means selling certain investments at a loss to reduce your tax bill or offset capital gains. Capital gains – either short-term or long-term – come when investments are sold and have appreciated beyond the price at which they were initially purchased. For example, you purchased Apple stock at $40.56 a share in 2018 and sold in 2022 when Apple was at $140.09. As is the case with many expat financial topics, tax loss harvesting becomes more complicated when you're living outside the U.S. But it is still an important topic to explore.

    We continue our ‘Introduction to Expatration' series with a deeper dive into the implications and consequences of covered expat status. While our first episode of this miniseries focused on the definitions and differences of covered vs. uncovered expat status, this edition hones in on what it means financially if you find yourself in the group of covered expats. As with most things involving expatriation, it's complex to be in the covered category. And as Stan Farmer, CFP, J.D., and Keith Poniewaz, Ph.D. explain, there are many financial (and tax components) to consider. They go more in-depth on what those considerations are, how different types of assets are treated when it comes to expatriation, and more.
