Expatriate Tax Returns

tax season

Filing an Extension

Tax Day 2022 is not a done deal! If you filed an extension by April 18, you have until October 17 to file your 2021 return. If you are an expat, you get an automatic extension until June 15, which means that it’s not too late to extend to October 17. Keep in mind that extensions only apply to filing, not paying! If you owe tax it was due by April 18…interest and penalties apply to all payments owed to the IRS after that date.

How Can Expatriates Save on Taxes?

Penalties are the most common reason that expatriates pay more in taxes. An experienced tax professional can help you get into the best situation without paying unnecessary fines. Missing a form or a signature can cost you, so working with a professional like Expatriate Tax Returns can help you in the long run. Pay attention to any exclusions or credits. Whether you are filing domestically or as an expatriate, keep an eye out for any exclusions or credits that can benefit you. Student loan interest or mortgage deductions are beneficial to ensure you aren’t overpaying on your taxes.

Stay Organized for Tax Season

It’s back-to-school season! Use the cooler temperatures and time away from the kids to get organized. We always like to keep taxes top of mind and have perfected a few organizational tips that help us stay on track. Here are a few tips that we find work for our customers and ourselves:

  1. Designate a Space: Keep all of your tax documents in one place. A simple file folder with all of the necessary forms will keep you from running around attempting to locate everything come April.
  2. Label Your Things: Divide your receipts into separate sections, with everything nicely labeled with a system that works for you. Keep childcare expenses separate from medical, or create categories that you find helpful.
  3. Find Some Time: Don’t let tax season sneak up on you! Carve out some time on your calendar of choice. If it’s an hour per month or 5 minutes a day to stay organized, make sure you keep yourself ahead of the game.
