yes, often it gets taxed before it hits you...and then gets taxed again. NOKIA is probably a favorite example here in the US...widely held, widely known.\n\nYou will be offered the chance to claim the foreign tax paid as a deduction or as a credit. A credit will be worth more to your bottom line. There is a line item on your taxes that will ask SPECIFICALLY if you paid any foreign tax. THAT is where your entry goes. Good luck.

The question is somewhat odd, since offshore centers are ussually tax free.\n\nI think the best location in the americas is panama.\n\ncheckout www.lowtax.net

Not sure who is going to offer credit to those who live outside the country, but when I was checking for ones that didn't charge extra foreign transaction fees, I only found a few, including HSBC (which you mentioned), State Farm Visa, Target Visa, and Capital One.  I've also heard USAA and Washington Mutual don't tack on extras.  You might contact those and see if they have a policy for foreign residents.  Best of luck to you.

I just spoke to the principal of an international school about this last week.  His school has worked out a Roth with an office that is in a U.S. territory nearby.  The tax is prepaid so there's no tax or penalty paid at retirement.  Email a investor in the Mainland to see what they can offer.  Some offices are just ignorant of the law, as most folks are for most things like voting, taxes, shipping things to people who are abroad.  You may want to email an investment group someplace like the Virgin Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico...  They're more familiar with policies and retirement programs for Americans living outside the Mainland.

Have your taxes done by somebody else if you have a healthy sized income, or income coming in from many different places. Also, if you've got a lot of payments... especially if a personal business is involved. The IRC is ENORMOUS... and professional CPAs with a good tax background are going to know it better than you. Loopholes are great.

Dear Friend,\n\nNo, unfortunately qui tam actions cannot be brought on tax evasion.  You can report them to the IRS.  If the IRS brings a successful enforcement action based on your information, the Commissioner may, in his absolute discretion, give you an award.  Or not.\n\nYour Friend,\nFrancesois

I think Credit Suisse can help you out, I know a couple of guys who have opened accounts there without having to go to switzerland. It depends on why you want the account, but there are other options apart from Switzerland, i.e. Cayman Islands, Lichtenstein, St. Lucia, etc etc...\nIf it's for tax then most offshore accounts can do what you need with regards to keeping the IRS at bay, I know a chap who is high up in credit agricole in switzerland, but their limit is about 250,000chf (a lot more than $20k). I'm not sure but I also heard that in switzerland they're soon going to change the law so your government can find out how much tax you should be paying and it won't be as private as it used to be. Good luck!

Not sure but I know you can get a 17.5% discount from VAT (value added tax). Ask the person to discount it and file and not to pay VAT.

There can be two types of income for you as a result of investment in offshore company.\n     . Dividend\n     . Capital gain\n\nIf you are resident Indian, both these are taxable , since dividend from only Domestic company are tax free. On short term capital gains you will have to pay normal rate of tax because the sale of these shares shall not take place through  Stock Exchange,\n       However, the offshore company means a foreign company which is also listed in Indian Stock Exchange, Long term capital gain is zero, Short Term at the rate of 10% and Dividend shall be taX free

You can not conceal the income because its recorded in Bank. The best way is the investment in certain specified things to take the deduction.\n\n     Avoiding tax by legal means should be though and not avoiding by all means which will put you more in problem because there is both penalty and prosecution mechanism under I T Act.
