We at Safe Harbor CPAs specialize in international tax issues, as many of our San Francisco Bay Area clients have financial interests in foreign countries. Often, they go to visit their assets – they might be real estate, factories, or even joint ventures with friends, families, and overseas corporations. But can one deduct a foreign travel expense on a US tax return? For that, we turn to our timely September Tax Tips Newsletter.
Other topics for September tax tips, include –
- Passive investing vs. active investing – what are the (taxable) differences?
- Inherited IRA assets and bankruptcy – if your Mom or Dad passes away AND they are bankrupt, can you inherit their IRA?
- Deducting Foreign Business Travel – as explained above, the in’s and out’s of how to deduct foreign travel expenses.
And, of course, we have our ever-popular tax calendar with upcoming events in September. Enjoy! To read the September tax tips bulletin, click here.
