Tax Services for Citizens, Resident Aliens, and Non-Residents
Whether you are a US citizen living temporarily outside of the US or a resident alien, you owe tax payments to your country of citizenship and current habitation. This is even true for those who do not have an accepted citizenship status. We help clients determine the correct amount of taxes owed and submit all relevant documentation on time, avoiding unnecessary taxation and determining all applicable credits.
For information on help filing forms 2555, 1116, and 1040NR visit our pages on tax filing for US citizens and non-resident tax services.

Tax Filing for Foreign Companies
We help our clients file all forms related to offshore business interests, especially if they are part owner of an overseas corporation or partnership. Even though your business is based in another country, there may be some reporting requirements. This is applicable for clients functioning as partners in a foreign business as well as shareholders in foreign corporations.
Get experienced assistance in filing form 5471 (Information Return of US Persons with Respect to Foreign Corporations) and form 8865 (Return of US Persons with Respect to Foreign Partnerships) by contacting our firm.
