This webinar will review the essential factors foreign businesses and individuals should consider before locating in the U.S. from both an immigration and taxation perspective. Our panel of global mobility and tax law experts will discuss immigration programs, issues in M&A transactions, viable pathways for foreign personnel transferring to the U.S., visa options and tax considerations for foreign entrepreneurs seeking to establish businesses in the U.S., and review the residency and permanent establishment rules for global businesses and their workforces.

Description

In an increasingly globalized world, businesses and individuals are frequently engaged across jurisdictions. Pre-planning for immigration to the U.S. is essential to mitigate the U.S. tax bite and to minimize issues in the employment of foreign persons inside the U.S. Indeed, businesses relocating employees from their home country need to consider the tax implications of the move to avoid potential double taxation of income and social security taxes on wages paid abroad.

Companies acquiring foreign nationals through M&A transactions may want to ensure they are a successor-in-interest to preserve visa status for these employees.

Listen as our panel of business immigration and tax attorneys discusses tax, business, and related employment and planning considerations arising from inbound immigration activities and other corporate interactions involving foreign nationals and personnel.
