The Accidental American

Darren’s guest is Laura McLeman, a Certified Professional Accountant and Certified Public Accountant, and expert on cross-border tax. She said the largest population of Americans living outside the U.S. is in Canada, and that many of them have tax issues. Like being an ‘accidental American.’ People born in the U.S. but who have lived most of their lives in Canada often don’t realize they must file a tax return. Darren and Laura also explore potential pitfalls of carrying a Green Card, the complexities of cross-border banking and cross-border estate planning, and why it’s best to get professional help from experts who know the tax regime in both countries.https://www.linkedin.com/in/laura-mcleman-cpa-ca/https://www.thecleverfirm.com/about-us
