Pre-COVID, nearly two-thirds of Florida residents were found to have migrated to Florida from other states and one-fifth of those migrated from a foreign country. COVID changed the way we live and work. Remote work arrangements have made it unnecessary to be tied to a physical location. Since COVID, over 900 people move to Florida each day. People move to Florida for many reasons: the weather is beautiful, they want to move closer to family and friends, they are attracted to the business-friendly environment, etc. Tax isn’t always a first priority; however, it is a significant factor. Many strategies may be implemented to mitigate U.S. income and estate taxes before becoming a Florida resident and even after arrival. We invite you to attend our presentation covering the following international tax-related topics:
· U.S. Income Tax Residency
· Income Tax and Reporting Requirements for U.S. Residents
· Strategies for Remediating Potential Noncompliance
· U.S. Domiciliary Status for Estate Tax Purposes
· Estate Tax and Reporting Requirements for U.S. and Non-U.S. Domiciliaries
· Structuring Strategies to Mitigate Income and Estate Tax
