Re: US/UK dual taxation treaty and pension income

I have operated under the premise that my UK 25% tax-free lump sum was taxable in the USA. I declared it as taxable income on our MFJ return in 2019. Is everyone else here doing the same? I don't...

Re: US/UK dual taxation treaty and pension income

I'm not sure what you mean by this comment. I wouldn't be 'taking a deduction' for anything. I would be paying the full amount of US taxes on our foreign pension income.

Thank goodness I have...

Re: US/UK dual taxation treaty and pension income

Thanks for replying Durham Lad. DH is saying that if we've paid the foreign taxes we wouldn't be giving a 'true representation' of our situation by not putting them on the return. My view and I'm...

Re: UK state pension and USA social security

Just curious about this... what on earth is their rationale for paying you on a W2 and not a 1099R? Lucky for you though, it means you increase your years of coverage. :)

Re: Moving UK Pension pot from Co Scheme to draw-down

I agree with MMcD's endorsement.

It appears you were certainly in a Catch 22 situation there. One thought... what is to stop you transferring out of the new plan? Do they also insist on an IFA...

Moving UK Pension pot from Co Scheme to draw-down

I'm requesting help with DH's pension from work in the UK between 1984 and 1991. This is not a 'final-salary' type pension, but the kind where you build up a pension pot and then buy an annuity at...

Re: Being asked to pay UK taxes on UK State Pension

I actually came here to see if I have to file form 2002 and pay $85 to the IRS each year to not get taxed on my paltry UK private pension.

Re: Being asked to pay UK taxes on UK State Pension

My mum gets over 220 gbp a week in state pension. I think this is because my dad paid into SERPS (State earnings related pension scheme, replaced by the state second pension in 2002).

Re: Organizing finances before potential return to UK

Fascinating! I wonder if I'll be getting one of those forms?

Luckily, I have all the records of my flights going back for some years, and the year in question is something of a one-off.
