“The US system of tax reporting and FBAR reporting is exceedingly complex, and materially differs from the reporting requirements in most other countries in the Western world.” So says Dan Price, my guest on this week's Ask An Expert show. That's why there's a high chance of non-compliance if you're an expat in the US, and why you need to hear this week's episode. Dan is a distinguished tax attorney, two years into running his own firm but with almost 20 years of experience at the IRS Office of Chief Counsel. While there he established programs designed to aid individuals in becoming tax compliant, and covered both criminal and civil IRS audits. He knows his stuff, so it's a privilege to have him on the show to take us behind the scenes at the IRS and give you expert advice on staying tax compliant. We talk about:·      The cost of compliance for middle-class tax payers. What qualifies as middle-class? And what are the costs of being in non-compliance? Hint: they're significant.·      How to streamline your filing with the IRS. As Dan explains, there are myriad systems and procedures in place to catch wilful non-compliance. You can't beat the algorithm, so don't try.·      The difference between true ignorance, or wilful blindness, and knowingly ignoring tax obligations. if you're an expat or an immigrant and you came here mid-career, there's a very good chance you're in some form of non-compliance. Don't bury your head in the sand. It's very possible the IRS already has information about you and it might one day catch up with you. There are solutions, palatable solutions, as you'll hear in this episode.For more information on Daniel N Price LLC, visit pricetaxlaw.comWe're the Brits in America is affiliated with Plan First Wealth LLC, an SEC registered investment advisor.

Many green card holders mistakenly believe they are no longer liable for US taxes after expiration. Properly relinquishing a green card requires completing Form I-407. If this is news to you (or you've never heard of this form) then you better listen to this week's Ask An Expert. Richard Taylor is joined once again by Virginia La Torre Jeker, a member of the NYS Bar since 1984 and preeminent US tax professional. Together they talk about what green card holders and US citizens need to know before giving up their status. They break down the risks of becoming a “covered expatriate,” how the exit tax works, and why signing the wrong form at the border can have big consequences. Plus, Virginia shares tips on how to plan ahead to avoid major tax issues. One of those is the exit tax: covered expatriates are treated as if they sold all their assets the day they expatriate - even if they haven't. In the case of IRAs and similar retirement accounts, the IRS treats the entire balance as a taxable distribution, potentially triggering a tax bill without the expat actually accessing any of the funds. If you've got a million dollars in an IRA, the IRS is going to treat it like you've just received a million dollars of IRA income - taxable at the highest rate, up to 37%. That hurts.  Find out how to avoid this, right here.We're the Brits in America is affiliated with Plan First Wealth LLC, an SEC registered investment advisor.

An accountant moves to the US in the 1980s with a portfolio of non-U.S. mutual funds (classified as PFICs under US tax law). Decades later and the portfolio has grown significantly, but is never reported under the US PFIC rules. Assuming it was taxed like a standard investment, the accountant has blindly walked into an 80% penalty, lost to taxes and interest. This cautionary tale highlights the critical need for early, specialised cross-border tax advice. Thankfully, we've got it here. Richard Taylor is joined for this week's Ask An Expert by Ishali Patel, Senior Director at Trowbridge Professional CorporationThey explore key issues like informational returns (FBAR, Form 3520), the PFIC regime for non-U.S. investments, and double-taxation risks when working across states. If you do a couple of days work a week in another state you could be taxed twice! It's bonkers, but need-to-know stuff. Ishali also shares insights on avoiding costly penalties and managing UK pensions under US rules.We're the Brits in America is affiliated with Plan First Wealth LLC, an SEC registered investment advisor.

In Take A Hike, they suggest organizing an Ask An Expert session in your field. It benefits the asker AND the expert. Then, in The Craft (& Fain), Liz and Sarah share why a question they were asked at lunch with one of their favorite executives is a good conversation starter — “Who do you admire in your business?” This week's Hollywood Hack is extremely practical: Memorize at least two phone numbers.

For Brits moving to America, there's a rude awakening when it comes to healthcare. The NHS, with its free and universal coverage, might not be perfect, but it spares you from the endless choices, staggering costs, and fine print that define the U.S. system.Here, every doctor's visit, every test, every prescription comes with a price - and for many, those prices are eye-watering.Retiring in America? Brace yourself for Medicare, a system that promises to help, but can often fall short, leaving you exposed to catastrophic costs if you don't know how to protect yourself.This isn't just a financial challenge; it's a cultural one. Brits aren't used to thinking about premiums, deductibles, or co-pays, let alone the maze of Medicare Part A, B, C, and D. The stakes couldn't be higher: healthcare decisions in the U.S. directly impact your financial future, your physical wellbeing, and ultimately, your quality of life – it's important stuff, so listen up!This week for Ask an Expert, Richard Taylor confronts the stark reality of navigating healthcare as an expat and is joined by none other than Misty Kimbrough, CEO of Red Apple Insurance and an expert in Medicare and pre-Medicare planning, to untangle the intricacies of this system and tell us all what we need to know.We're the Brits in America is affiliated with Plan First Wealth LLC, an SEC registered investment advisor.

Paula Jones is a cross-border estate planning attorney. She's the principal and founder of Jones Estate Group, a law firm based in Philadelphia that serves clients across the US and internationally. Richard and Paula discuss the importance of working with cross-border attorneys who have expertise in both US and UK law, as well as the need for a network of advisors to navigate the complexities of international estate planning. If you are, as Paula refers to them, a multinational (you've got a business relationship with the US plus a non-US component), you'll need to know the pitfalls of US federal and state estate taxes, inheritance taxes, and the differences in probate processes across states. Paula explains that probate fees and legal fees vary depending on the jurisdiction, and the process can be delayed if the probate office is backed up. Filled with the answers to the questions you need to know, this episode is a must for any multinational. Always an Expat is affiliated with Plan First Wealth LLC, an SEC registered investment advisor.

Do you know enough about living trusts? They're a tax-neutral and effective tool in the US to avoid probate – BUT they can have severe UK tax implications for UK domiciliaries. Probate can be time-consuming, costly and cumbersome – especially in New York and California – so it makes sense to avoid if you can. To explore the options, Richard is joined once again by Aidan Grant, a senior associate at Collyer Bristow LLP. The use of a living trust can trigger significant inheritance tax liabilities in the UK. Transferring assets into such a trust can result in an immediate 20% inheritance tax charge on the value exceeding the UK's nil-rate band (£325,000). It's definitely something to be aware of. Plus, many more practical steps and considerations for domiciles.Always an Expat is affiliated with Plan First Wealth LLC, an SEC registered investment advisor.
