Great video, thanks for posting the recording. One thing I’d just like to note for other viewers is that the value of Roth IRAs (but not traditional IRA) are in fact subject to NL box 3 taxes yearly.

We can't hear Mr Singh

If you’re employed in the UK & you do backdoor Roth in the US. I know that you pay Income Tax in the US on that backdoor conversion but will you also have to pay tax in the UK? Thx

Perhaps the French penchant for universal healthcare is that they logically deducted long ago that the invisible hand of market capitalism needs price transparency and tort control, and that health services don't lend themselves well to that and therefore needs to be provided under bureaucratic control. Seems like there are a bunch of countries around the world doing this very successfully without thinking about it as "socialistic" and all the negative connotations associated with that.

Any tax videos put there for canadian retirees?. Also in Canada we have federal income tax and provincial income tax

Could you supply Ruben’s email address? It is incorrect in the transcript.

Very useful and frankly if one has significant US IRAs that one wishes to ensure pass to the next generation, France will confiscate your assets. So unfortunately we just got a reason to not stay long term. We’ll just enjoy while we are here.

So, if I understand correctly, it is possible to live in France full time and have a company in the US? I am French living in the US for 35 years, my husband is American. We both have social security, also my husband has a trading company. So, would it be possible to purchase a property and live in France full time, and for him to trade on US platforms? I guess in this situation, we would pay US taxes only?

Daniel speaks way too fast to understand.

Getting a Mortgage in France ??!

Very thorough.

Bonjour! Excellent video. Very informative. Thank you! We are retired American educators with modest social security and pension payments (45k), and very modest rental income(16k). We had been looking at Spain, France, and Italy because of their healthcare systems. But, Spain and Italy would tax us more than France, and France has better healthcare. Is my perception correct? 60k per year is taxed less in France than in Spain, correct? Thank you. Merci! Dean & Cindy

Very informative! Appreciate all the "free" help you're providing to people like me - still sitting on the fence but leaning forward heavily... :D

The sound on Christine is so hard to hear and understand

Thanks guys!!

great info, thanks!

Does the trust issue still apply when a US parent has a trust and the adult children live in France are the heirs and all assets are US based (home, bank and investments)?

What about the contributions that you make to the German pension? I’ve heard that those are deductible in the USA

The audio on that lady sitting in the white room is so hard to understand. It’s digitizing and then the reverb. I had to scroll forward through it. Seems like good info, pity only about 2/3 of it was intelligible.

I was thinking of Portugal to retire too but France might be the way to go as they recognize Roth's. I'd need to do something about Estate stuff though.

But I want to know that if you call in the next 5 minutes, do we get a set of ginzu knives!?

This was all really helpful information. Thank you for uploading it publicly!

Very informative talk. Thank you!

This is a pretty unhelpful video and it looks like there are very few follow up answers to many people’s good questions. The production level of the video is poor too. To be honest I feel like this reflects poorly on your company but thanks.

Five years ago I can't even find oversea filing videos! When I need to for the first time.

Just making it more and more complicated like the US medical system, would eventually lead to a rebellion and revolt. See why Trump is becoming popular is proof.

Unless you can take alipay or wechat pay or credit card from China, I don't know how to pay for the US tax filers. My brother and sisters say they help, but when it comes to action, they won't even let me use their credit cards for this purpose, and reimburse them later with my bank transfers from HK...many more examples...

Are us govt pensions, such as U.S. federal govt and military retirement, VA disability compensation for disabled veterans, social security? Between military retirement and VA disability, I bring in just over $100K/yr…when my wife retires from her federal career, she will receive over $50k/yr; then she will likely receive the max Soc sec retirement and I’ll be close behind.

vocals on the dark hair women is very eco like.

You have to read, understand fully your individual situation and Fatca/Fincen rules very bad only the US has them.

Excellent. Thank you!

There is a French online bank named Boursorama. From Société Générale. I use it 👍

Looks like you are mistaken about Marine le Pen…Americans are very welcome in France and in Nice.

@Dunhill Financial -So If I hear it right. The first 40K of CAPITAL GAINS (Or the first 80K if you are married) for an American retiree is Tax free even in France. Cause it is taxed or rather not taxed in the U,S. Correct?

Luv yr Shows! USA stole my kids to give them to abusive Mormon and holding me hostage 4 years now but I keep pleading to go back to France! What Visa should I apply for to stay here? 1 year visitor visa? (I plan is to buy a home in Cannes which I spent 2 years in awaiting extradition to evil US). So tired of abuse and injustice of AMerica! So stupid to accept extradition - should have stayed in France. PS what insurance do u recommend to buy to attach to visa application? Who to consult for Real Estate Shopping (prefer someone with experience w Credit Vendeur at 50% down) to prevent Luxury Tax . a bientôt si le juge me laisse enfin quitter les USA!

Was the inheritance forum ever recorded, as mentioned here ? I can't seem to find it on this channel.

How does one get into the live stream?

great information here, thanks!

Very useful information. Much food for thought!

I would like to know what PROHIBITS France from taxing US expats who reside in France on their US Rental income? ARTICLE 6 Income from Real Property Paragraph 1 provides that income of a resident of a Contracting State from real property situated in the other Contracting State may be taxed in the State in which the property is situated. The Article does not grant an exclusive taxing right to the situs State, but assigns it the primary right.

Thank you for the video. Unfortunately, I had time to understand what Ms Marciasini said. I'm hoping there will be more videos on the topic. Thanks again

Do you have an equivalent of SELLER FINANCING in USA where the seller takes a down payment (EG 25%), and then you make payments to the seller for a few years before refinancing it is very common in America and is called seller financing were the buyer gets the deed to the property, but it is subject to repayment of the mortgage to Seller. Do you have anything like that in France?

Love these North American expats in France forums! Thanks all for providing these. (I'm hoping my parents try moving out there!)

It is interesting how the experts didn't agree on a few parts. That tells me YMMV. @29:39

So he's saying if an American citizen living in France wants to buy a €250k place, with €100-150 mortgage that isn't allowed?

One problem with all this: Italians and how they do things.

If my wife and I want to retire in lets say Piedmont, and have a combined Social Security of $4700/month will that all be taxed in Italy and in US.

Too bad these experts don’t seem confident about what they know and seem unable to articulate in plain language.

This is not helpful. Does not seems like they are the experts in their fields. This was not helpful to me. Look at some videos of France taxes and see how it is done.
