Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to international tax concerns

  • Do I need to pay U.S. taxes if I move from another country?

    In most cases, yes. Once you establish residency in the U.S. for tax purposes, you are generally taxed on worldwide income. This includes wages, investment income, and property income from both U.S. and foreign sources. MABE helps determine your residency status and ensures you meet all filing obligations.

  • Can you help me file taxes as a non-resident?

    Yes. Non-residents often need to file Form 1040-NR if they earn U.S. income, such as wages, rental income, or business profits. We guide you through residency rules, treaty benefits, and dual-status returns if you only lived in the U.S. part of the year. Our bilingual team makes sure you avoid penalties and file correctly the first time.

  • What kind of tax planning should I do before moving to the U.S.?

    Pre-immigration planning can make a significant difference in how much tax you owe once you arrive. This may include selling or restructuring assets, adjusting investment accounts, or transferring property before establishing residency. We help clients design a timeline and strategy to minimize exposure to U.S. taxes while staying compliant in their home country.

  • How are foreign investments reported on U.S. tax returns?

    U.S. taxpayers must report worldwide income, including rental property, bank accounts, and investments outside the U.S. In many cases, additional forms such as FBAR or FATCA reports are required. Our team ensures that income is properly reported, credits for foreign taxes are claimed when available, and treaty benefits are considered to avoid double taxation.

  • Do you provide services for Americans living abroad?

    Yes. U.S. citizens and green card holders are required to file U.S. taxes even while living overseas. We help with foreign earned income exclusions, foreign tax credits, and compliance with FBAR and FATCA. Our services give expats peace of mind that they’re meeting all U.S. obligations while taking advantage of available tax relief.
