In this episode I discuss the biggest mistake I see people make when expatriating—failing to ensure they are fully tax compliant, which can lead to becoming a "covered expatriate." This status can trigger significant financial and legal consequences, including being subject to an exit tax regime, having U.S. person recipients of gifts and inheritances taxed at the highest rates, and even facing difficulties in obtaining a U.S. visa.
I break down the three factors that can classify someone as a covered expatriate: having a net worth of $2 million or more, an annual average income tax liability of more than $201k for the five years prior to expatriation, or not being tax compliant for the five years before expatriation.
Tune in to learn how to protect yourself and ensure a smooth expatriation process, free from costly mistakes. This episode is a must-listen for anyone considering expatriation and wanting to avoid the traps that could turn their dream into a financial nightmare.
