International Transactions
The new global economy means that many businesses are engaging in foreign transactions. Furthermore, many families are feeling the impact by cross-border tax consequences of financial dealings. This also results in far more international tax audits than ever before. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has become much more active in reviewing international taxation matters.
Although the IRS always monitors the international transactions of United States citizens, small businesses, corporations, and other entities that have foreign accounts, the number of audits arising out of international tax issues is on the rise. In addition, there are many pitfalls for those foreign nationals who are engaging in financial transactions that occur in whole or in part in the United States.
In the event of a tax audit involving international income, the determination of tax residency, foreign tax credits, the applicability of specific tax treaties, and other issues arising out of the source of income and the international tax consequences, it is imperative to have legal representation that understands all the nuances of international tax law and has international partners to assist in the logistics of an audit. At Milikowsky Tax Law, our skilled professionals are ready to help untangle the messy legal problems that may arise as part of an international tax audit. We offer a one-hour free consultation in office or via telephone or video conferencing in order to learn about your international tax issues and offer possible solutions.
