PROGRAM:

US Tax Compliance for US Citizens Living Abroad. 
We will be live via Skype with Washington DC tax lawyer Christopher M. Klug, Esq., LL.M. 

He will speak to us about what we missed filing our returns April 15 so we can amend them. 
What we need to know is our obligations under FACTA. 
There will be time set aside for Q&A.

We are a party under a big tent and there are many different views and opinions about US policy and politics. Let’s keep this in mind when we have discussions so that there are no personal attacks as we debate issues. We want to keep everyone in the tent with comfort and assurance that their views will be listened to with respect. It takes a party to keep us on track and we want that party intact.

***RSVP***

Reservations are REQUIRED at

OR
call Nelleke at 8-721-6497

*Please be sure to make your reservation if you plan to come to any DACR meeting as their cushion between what the hotel charges them and what they charge for attendance is getting very thin.  They used to order bocas for 3-5 extra people for meetings, but if they did that now they would lose money, so they order only for those who made their reservation, and then order extra on the day of the meeting.  However, the hotel can charge them 20% extra if they order bocas on the day of the meeting, so they need to avoid that.
