Dear Members,
Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) is the US Government's response to a series of investigations into US tax evasion scandals in or around 2006. The purpose of FATCA is to prevent US persons from using banks and other financial institutions outside the USA to park their wealth outside US to avoid US taxation on income generated from such wealth. FATCA obliges such banks and financial institutions to report information about US persons having accounts with them. FATCA legislation affects both individual and entities who are treated as a 'US person' for US tax purposes. Considering the increase in the transactions between India and the USA, many of our clients are coming in the ambit of this law. Further India has signed treaty with US for sharing of information and many of our clients have started receiving letters from banks for FATCA compliance.
A need is felt to thoroughly study this topic and accordingly we have organized a study circle meeting jointly with Ashram Road CPE Study Circle of WIRC on the subject FATCA and Exit Tax for US Citizens and Indian Residents, details are as under:
