      IF YOU DON'T OPEN A BANK ACCOUNT ABROAD AND ARE MAKING CASH, WILL YOU STILL NEED TO PAY TAXES ?

      As a non-US Taxpayer, if I open an account with a bank outside of the US and the bank wants to comply with FATAC, specifically, what would they typically do to ask me to sign (to certify myself, etc.)?

    If not for FATCA, I doubt there would be nearly as much interest in cryptocurrencies as there currently is.
    Also, the US government is able to impose FATCA requirements on foreign banks only because of its control over the SWIFT system. One of these days, an alternative to SWIFT will be developed, at which point there may be many more banks willing to accept US citizens as customers.

    I tried to open a bank account abroad and i wondered why they we’re asking for my US passport, then i went to meet with the teller and after a couple paper work in the country’s language and all of a sudden i see papers in English piled up waiting for me and when i took a closer look and saw they we’re IRS papers with the local bank’s logo on the top right corner! I watched in awe as he then printed out my ssn and sent it onwards. I thanked the bank for accepting me

    Thanks for the video. Yeah, Fatca is definitely something that limits financial freedom of people. I can understand why government is doing what it's doing, in the end it is its direct function, to govern. The issue here is that these regulations mainly affect middle class, top ones easily get away with all sorts of loopholes. Given your pursue of freedom (financial included), why wouldn't you make a video on Bitcoin? It seems to me like a great idea of keeping personal financial liberty disregarding the hawk eyes of financial institutions. Interested to hear your opinion.

    • @yogangr2982
      @yogangr2982 3 роки тому +1

      No you have to be in an immigrant visa like green card or a dual intent visa like H1b.
      J1 is a student/trainee visa so you don’t even contribute to social security tax and Medicare. You are not an American tax payer. You just pay for the fed and state and city that’s it and you move on with life in Canada.

    I’m very successful in shopify selling overseas and I have a tier c and a US passport I got the US passports through my parents but I was born in the tier c country so I acquired the tier c passport by being born there but usually when I go to different countries usually I open the bank accounts for my business with the tier c passport and never ask me if I’m a us person or anything like that they usually ask about my business but that’s all but I don’t file to the irs cos none of my income comes from the US. My question is how come offshore banks don’t tend to ask me fatca questionss

      It is because they don ´t expect you to have the US passport. It happened to me in my native country. They never asked me, until I asked them, how much I will have to pay, if I sell my us stocks, because I am the US tax payer.

      @nomadcapitalist  5 років тому +12
