Report
All expats who meet the minimum requirements for their filing status and age are required to file a federal tax return. Not all states require that expats file a return, but if yours does, we can help you prepare and file your state return. Small business owners must file returns for any business (other than a sole proprietorship) that is considered a separate entitiy.
Federal Tax Return
Report
Yes, filing taxes overseas is necessary if you would be required to file while living in the United States. The law requires that American citizens and resident aliens who live abroad must follow the same rules for filing income, estate and gift tax returns as those living in the United States. Regardless of where you currently reside, your worldwide income is subject to U.S. income tax.
State Income Tax
Report
If you live overseas, do you pay state taxes? The answer depends on the state. Some U.S. citizens and residents living abroad must file a state tax form, but not all expats are required to do so. Whether or not U.S. expats need to file a state income tax return depends on which state they lived in before their move to another country.
Form 5471
Report
U.S. citizens and residents who are officers, directors or shareholders in certain foreign corporations must file Form 5471 as part of their expat tax return. If you are living abroad and operating a business from a foreign country, you must file a U.S. federal tax return if you own at least 10 percent of a foreign corporation, and your return must include Form 5471.
