LGA’s international tax team is continually immersed in the sophisticated strategies of international tax structuring, compliance, and reporting so we can help you find your way through the increasingly complex and demanding regulations.

Helping Foreign Parent Companies Establish a US Business Presence
Welcome to the US! LGA specializes in working with international companies who have or are looking to establish a US business presence. Our team will assist the foreign parent with its domestic tax compliance requirements and will also work with the foreign company’s employees to ensure that they are also compliant with federal and state requirements.
US reporting requirements for businesses and individuals with foreign activities
Do I have a reportable foreign bank account?
Does my company have any foreign owners?
Have I invested in a foreign corporation or partnership?
Did I pay tax to another country?
Do I live or work outside the US?
These questions only begin to help you uncover your potential exposure to the complex world of US tax compliance related to worldwide activities. There are a multitude of rules and exemptions in each of these areas as well as many other situations that may result in the need for reporting, disclosure and payment of tax. It’s important to understand your complete financial and tax circumstances, especially where your income came from and where you are making payments.
Businesses with Expatriates and Inpatriates
For foreign nationals working in the U.S. and U.S. citizens working abroad, filing taxes gets a whole lot more complicated. LGA can help both expatriates and inpatriates with their tax planning and tax preparation. If you’re an employer with many international workers, consider hiring LGA to manage a group of employees’ tax returns so you can be confident your dedicated employees are being well taken care of when away from home.
