Tax Professional Request
Hi all, I'm a newbie to the forum, and first off I should say how useful it is to have a forum such as this.
My question about tax is really a very simple one, I'm looking to find a recommended tax accountant in the San Francisco area (Palo Alto ideally) who is experienced in dealing with tax affairs of UK expats. I will be moving there in Q1 2010 (on a green card) and will def need someone to handle my tax affairs, including... self employed income whilst in the US from a UK-based client, a property in UK which will be rented out while I am in US. I will be looking for the most tax-efficient way to get that income from my UK-based client (currently in the UK it goes via an umbrella company into an offshore trust from which I get occasional lump sum payments). My family situation is married with a young child and while my wife has no earnings now she may want to work when we get to US, plus we put some money into a trust account for our child in the UK. Its a potentially complicated lot that I really would need an expert working on. Any recommendations of DECENT, HONEST, and KNOWLEDGABLE tax accountants will be much appreciated. Any advice or recommendations most welcome, thanks :-) |
Re: Tax Professional Request
Hi: go to www.naea.org and click on "find an enrolled agent". You can specify your location, and select international tax as the specialty.
Enrolled Agents are the only tax professionals tested by IRS on their knowledge of tax law and regulations. They provide tax preparation, representation, tax planning and other financial services to millions of individual and business taxpayers. EAs adhere to a code of ethics and professional conduct and are required by the IRS to take Continuing Professional Education. Like attorneys and CPAs, Enrolled Agents are authorized to represent taxpayers in matters before the IRS. |
Re: Tax Professional Request
WE have used a foreign tax specialist here since 1992. We live here now and still use them as we have overseas interests still. They have great knowledge of many expat country tax rules including GB and Ireland.
I can supply name if you want it. Recommend them totally. |
