The U.S. tax regime for foreign corporations owned by U.S. persons has been completely redefined by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. To facilitate this change, Congress imposed a one-time tax on certain offshore earnings: the learning curve is steep, the IRS issued guidance just recently, and the timeline for our clients is very short. This course outlines the who, what, when, where, and, most importantly, how of computing and paying this tax.

The learning objectives for this webinar include:

  • Recognize the new terminology and expanded definitions in §965
  • Identify taxpayers who are subject to the §965 repatriation tax
  • Apply IRS guidance to compute the §965 repatriation tax
  • Prepare the election to pay the §965 tax over 8 years


Your registration includes 2 IRS CE as well as:

  • Downloadable course materials and workpapers
  • A coupon code good for 1 free use of the Expat Tax Tools Section 965 Online Calculator.
