Sometimes Less
is More

 
Would you spend 100 hours to prepare a tax return for $500?

 
Do you have a few clients with an offshore trust, foreign corporation, foreign mutual fund or an international business company?

If so, how do you feel about spending hundreds of hours learning to fill out a tax  return when  you only have one or two clients who need to submit that kind of return?


Sometimes, Less is More

It takes a lot of time to learn how to correctly prepare a tax return for a foreign trust, foreign corporation, passive foreign investment company or foreign partnership.

There is no way your clients will agree to pay you for all the time it will take you to learn how to fill out these returns. And, most of the tax preparation software does not include the tax forms required for foreign trusts, corporations, mutual funds or partnerships. You will have to prepare them the old fashioned way, by hand with a calculator.


Do you want to be the one who eats the cost of that time?

Worse yet, do you want to risk a lawsuit because you aren't familiar with the ambiguous and sometimes contradictory rules for foreign investments or entities owned by U.S. taxpayers?

What's the best solution for you if you have clients with offshore investments, trusts, corporations or partnerships?

Call Us 800.659.6546 (US)

You can sub-contract your offshore returns
 to the member firms of the International
Tax Compliance Group.


If your client asks us to do any of your domestic tax work, the answer will be that we focus on international tax compliance services. We do not want your domestic business and we are not a threat to your relationship with your clients.

Members of the International Tax Compliance Group will work with you and your client to prepare the returns that may be required for clients who have foreign trusts, foreign investments or foreign business interests. If amended returns are required, we will prepare the required forms and you can then prepare the 1040X or 1120X.

The big international accounting firms don't want the small businesses and individual clients with whom we work because these clients don't represent large enough annual billings for the large firms. The small and medium size firms don't have enough international tax preparation work to invest the time and money to become competent in this field. Our members are available to fill that gap and to save you a lot of lost time -- which means lost billings.

Sometimes less is more because of the benefits of specialization. You get paid for what you already know and do well. We get paid for our specialized experience in a specialized segment of the tax law working as a resource for you.
