Authors

James Wm. Clement

Abstract

One possible method of reducing United States income tax liability is to expatriate, or renounce United States citizenship, and be taxed as a nonresident alien. However, there is a degree of tax planning necessary to accomplish a reduction or elimination of income taxation of the expatriate. This Note discusses techniques that can be used to accomplish this favorable tax treatment.
