Are you in need of Expat Tax Services?

Whether you are the CEO of an Australian corporation opening operations in the United States or working in America on a non-immigrant visa, choosing an accounting firm for IRS filings or other ex-pat tax services is one of your most important decisions.

In addition to the IRS requiring a USA tax return, the IRS requires certain US information filings such as FBAR, which may include Superannuation and other financial accounts held in Australia. Having an Accountant who specializes in expat tax services such as advice on double taxation and FBAR, is essential for Australian ex-pats living in the USA to correctly complete their annual IRS tax return.

You could also be searching for an accounting firm offering business consulting, tax consulting, consulting services, business advisory, or business consulting services.

We took time to record an interview with members of EFPR’s International Tax Group to speak to some of the expat tax services they provide. If you are looking for a new firm to handle your US tax filing and reporting requirements for the IRS, this video may assist with your due diligence process.
