About the program…
In this timely presentation, Michael Spielman, a nationally-recognized commentator and adviser, will discuss the fundamental international tax planning and compliance issues that regularly surface with clients whose business interests or personal lives move them into and out of the United States and its taxing authority. As corporations grow globally and supply chains link the United States to all corners of the globe, more individuals are entering or leaving the United States to live, work and raise families. Individuals who split time living in the United States and another country, foreign individuals who relocate to the United States to work for an extended period, dual citizens and even individuals who have never set foot in the United States may be subject to all or a portion of the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.   This presentation will discuss what it means to be a United States tax resident or nonresident, and the myriad effects that these designations have on an individual’s United States income, estate, gift and generation-skipping transfer tax profile.
