Personalized Tax Consulting for Expats, Digital Nomads & Multi-State Businesses

Keep more of what you earn—no matter where life or business takes you.

WHAT WE OFFER

  • Private Consultations

    In a focused video session, bring any tax question—From “Do I still owe California after I moved to Mérida?” to “How do I track foreign tax credit calculation in my expat tax software?” We review your documents in advance, share a custom expatriate tax calculator, and email actionable next steps within 24 hours.

  • Move-Abroad Tax Blueprint

    Before you ship the couch or book the flight, we map out pre-departure strategies: step-up basis for rental property taxes, timing income for the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion, and breaking domicile states ties. After arrival, we optimize foreign tax credit limits, double-check AirBnB occupancy taxes, and monitor the 330-day test so you never miss an exclusion.

  • Business & Multi-State Strategy

    Whether you run an S-Corp selling digital products or a C-Corp with remote staff in three states, we design nexus-friendly structures, rescue you from penalty landmines, and sync quarterly estimates to every jurisdiction’s tax filing deadline US calendar. Our planning integrates state-level R&D credits, sales-tax automation, and tax resolution services if notices already hit your inbox.

  • Expat & Digital Nomad Support

    Digital nomad taxes come with currency swings, crypto gains, and Wi-Fi-powered side gigs. We model scenarios—“stay 15 more days in Portugal vs. fly to Bali”—to guard your Foreign Earned Income Exclusion. Need Form 5471 support or a foreign pension strategy? We’ve filed them all, from simple expat taxes to complex controlled foreign corporation filings.

  • Real-Estate & AirBnB Optimization

    Own a condo in Austin but host in Málaga? We recast depreciation, track rental property tax benefits, and separate personal vs. rental days for AirBnB tax deductions. Our team prepares AirBnB tax documents, calculates rental property gain tax on sale, and aligns it with foreign tax credit calculation so you avoid double taxation.

Frequently Asked Questions
