Compass Tax Educators

U.S. citizens and residents generally pay U.S. tax on their worldwide income. U.S. law provides for both a foreign earned income exclusion and a foreign tax credit to mitigate double taxation. This class reviews both mechanisms in-depth and discusses strategies for determining which is the optimal strategy.

Learning Objectives

• Define the requirements for qualifying for the foreign earned income exclusion.
• Identify how to elect or revoke the foreign earned income exclusion.
• Define the requirements for qualifying for the foreign tax credit.
• Compute the foreign earned income exclusion and foreign tax credit.
• Analyze how to select the best mechanism for offsetting U.S. tax.
