Individual taxpayers who do not live in the US are given many significant benefits. Amongst these valuable benefits is the ability to exclude certain earned income from US taxation, credits for taxes paid to foreign governments, and longer time to file taxes. However, owning assets and investments outside the US carries additional reporting requirements. There are significant penalties associated with failing to properly comply with the requirements. 

This course will introduce the special exclusions, credits and filing requirements applicable to individual taxpayers living outside the US.  The course will also highlight the provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act which apply uniquely to individual non-resident taxpayers.
