Welcome to the Foreign Tax CPA blog

Foreign Tax CPA exists for one reason: to make U.S. tax compliance understandable and manageable for people whose lives and businesses cross borders. For more than twenty years we have served clients who own U.S. property while living abroad, and the questions we hear each day keep coming back to the same themes — FIRPTA, 1040-NR filings, IRS notices, estate and trust matters, and the everyday friction of dealing with U.S. agencies from overseas. This blog is where we share what we learn, written plainly and in the voices of the people on our team who handle that work every day. You will see posts from our attorneys' partner, our IRS representation lead, our FIRPTA documentation specialist, our estate and trust expert, and more. If you own U.S. real estate, advise someone who does, or close transactions involving foreign sellers, this is for you. We post regularly, and each article is meant to answer a specific question with enough detail to act on without drowning in footnotes. Subscribe to the newsletter to get new posts in your inbox, and reach out if there is a topic you would like us to cover. Thank you for reading.
