Eduardo Saverin and the Section
877A Expatriation Tax. Plus a brief overview of Canadian income taxes and the Canada-US Tax
Treaty.
US citizens and long-term residents are leaving the US in record numbers.
Each calendar quarter the IRS lists those individuals who have renounced their
US citizenship or turned in their Green Card. This list contains a few names you
may recognize, including Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin. His renunciation
of US Citizenship was well planned and executed with the Section 877A
Expatriation Tax in mind. This presentation will give an overview of Section
877A and how Mr. Saverin mitigated his US income tax exposure. It will also
discuss how Section 877A can trap the unwary, especially Canadian nationals who,
after an extended residence in the US to work, desire to move back home to
Canada.
