Navigating the Expatriate Tax Maze 2026 (Part 1): Meet the BDO Experts

The US tax system can feel less like a framework and more like a minefield — especially if you're a foreign national living and working in the United States, or an employer responsible for international talent.In this opening episode of our 5-part series, Navigating the Expatriate Tax Maze, host David Powell introduces your guides: Dave Zydek, Tax Managing Director in BDO's Private Client Services practice, and Peter Trieu, Tax Principal based in San Francisco. Both work daily with high-net-worth individuals and family offices navigating complex cross-border tax issues.Dave and Peter set the stage, recap the foundational topics covered in part one of this webinar series (available on cawnetworkusa.com), and lay out the four deep-dive topics ahead: passive foreign investment companies (PFICs), the US expatriation tax, gift and estate tax for foreign nationals, and foreign trusts.Whether you're planning ahead or playing catch-up, this series is packed with practical insights to help you stay compliant and tax-efficient in the US.Brought to you by CAW Network USA in partnership with BDO.
