Program Description and Benefits:
The U.S. estate tax can apply not only to Americans but also non-Americans who have investments in the United States. It is important that non-Americans seek advice before investing in the U.S. stock market and real estate. U.S. tax considerations also affect how non-Americans should do their estate planning for their American family members. Please join this session to learn more about the U.S. tax rules that affect investing and estate planning for non-Americans and their families.
