Moved abroad this year and unsure what your US return needs?

The year you move, you often earn income in two countries, and your US return has to cover both. We prepare that return and any foreign account reports as part of our expat tax preparation services. You send the records you have from both sides of the move.

  • 30+ years in practice
  • Named contact on your file

Expat tax preparation services for your first year

  1. Give us your move date

    Send the date with the pay and bank records you already have from abroad. You do it all online, securely.

  2. We prepare your first-year US return

    We claim any foreign income relief you qualify for. We also prepare any foreign account reports you need.

  3. The same contact next year

    You get your completed US return to sign. Next year, the same named contact picks up from this file.

What your first expat return costs

We set the fee from the work your move year needs:

  1. How many countries you earned income in
  2. Whether we claim the foreign earned income exclusion, the foreign tax credit or both
  3. How many foreign accounts you need to report
  4. Any foreign pension, rental or self-employment income
  5. A spouse who isn’t a US citizen

One salary in one country and a single bank account abroad sit at the light end. These are the factors, not a quote.

  • Moved for work

    A foreign employer now pays your salary. We report that pay and compare the tax breaks open to Americans abroad.

  • Retired overseas

    You live abroad on a pension and Social Security. We prepare your US return around that income.

  • Married to a non-American

    We go over your US filing options with you, including a joint return. Ask us before you file.
