We can assist in the structuring of funds, such as private equity, hedge and real estate funds, as well as determine the US tax consequences for various investors in those funds. As in all our work, we will also help with FATCA compliance and tax preparation.
If an international company is looking to expand into the US, we can assist in advising which type of entity to choose; whether corporation, partnership, fund, etc., as well as how to capitalize the entity for tax-efficient planning. We can also advise US companies on the acquisition and sale of foreign businesses; expat tax advice takes all sizes and shapes.
Our core expertise is US tax compliance, (preparing the tax returns and informational statements) no matter if for an individual, corporation, partnership fund or trust. The regulations governing the preparation of tax returns and other documentation can be complex and are subject to change. As an example, we recommend our piece featuring an in-depth look at the regulations the IRS has only recently finalized with regards to changes in centralized partnership audit procedures.
