  • 64. Investing from Abroad: How Americans Should Protect Their Assets from Overseas | Move to Europe with Katelynn Minott
    Dec 10 2025
    Expatriates need to manage their tax obligations effectively and avoid mismatches between tax systems that can lead to double taxation. One of the most common mistakes American expats make is investing through a Passive Foreign Investment Company (PFIC), which is taxed at the highest US tax rate, often simply because they didn’t have the proper guidance. Working with qualified expat wealth advisors is essential for making smart, legal, and cost-effective financial decisions. Moving abroad is exciting, but it’s easy to fall into tax traps that can have costly consequences. Richard Taylor - dual UK/US citizen and Chartered Financial Planner - is joined by American Katelynn Minott - CPA at Bright!Tax, to explore the key tax challenges Americans face when moving abroad. They discuss common compliance pitfalls, strategies to avoid expensive errors, and the benefits of proactive planning with specialist advisors to successfully navigate cross-border financial obligations. In this episode of We’re The Brits In America, Richard and Katelynn explore: The importance of adhering to both US and foreign tax obligations and how misinformation can lead to costly mistakes. The difficulties Americans face with foreign banking due to the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA), and strategies for managing financial affairs while abroad. PFICs and why they can be financially devastating for expatriates if not managed properly. Considerations and implications of renouncing US citizenship. More about We’re The Brits In America: With the right financial advice, landmines that threaten expat wealth can be avoided. Often encountered by US-connected expats, these financial landmines are more numerous, more hazardous, and less understood than almost anywhere else in the world. As a result, non-cross border professionals, wealth advisors, and even international advisors are often unaware of them. But don’t worry, We're The Brits In America has you covered. We're The Brits In America is dedicated to helping ambitious US-connected expats and immigrants navigate those challenges — and thrive.

From tax rules and immigration pathways to cultural fit and long-term financial planning, the journey comes with complexities that have caught many people off guard. In this episode of We’re The Brits In America, Richard Taylor - dual UK/US citizen and Chartered Financial Planner - sits down with Alex Ingrim, President & Co-Founder of Liberty Atlantic Advisors, and David Cantor, immigration attorney and founder of Relocate. Both are American expats living in Italy, bringing firsthand insight into what it really takes to establish a sustainable life in Europe. Richard, Alex, and David take a detailed look at: Why moving to something and not away from something is essential for a successful relocation How immigration frameworks differ across Europe, and why there’s almost always a viable pathway if you know where to look The biggest mistakes Americans make, including choosing countries based solely on visas or cost of living Why US citizens face unique tax and administrative challenges abroad — and how treaties can sometimes turn those into advantages (like in France) How to evaluate countries based on your asset base, tax position, lifestyle goals, and tolerance for complexity Why Spain, Italy, Portugal, and France all offer opportunities, but come with radically different wealth taxes, reporting rules, and planning considerations The growing trend of younger families relocating, driven by quality of life, education, and cultural exposure for children The mindset shift required to embrace uncertainty, build a life in a new culture, and take control of your own expat journey More about We’re The Brits In America: With the right financial advice, landmines that threaten expat wealth can be avoided.

  • 62. The Complexities of Having a UK Pension in the US: Navigating Pension Commencement Lump Sums | From The Trenches with James Boyle
    Nov 26 2025
    Many expats assume their Pension Commencement Lump Sum (PCLS) will remain tax-free when they relocate, but the US UK tax treaty leaves too much ambiguity to be certain. Therefore, what should you do with your PCLS when moving to the US as a British expat? Working with a dedicated cross-border tax advisor can help you avoid costly IRS repercussions. Host Richard Taylor – dual UK/US citizen and Chartered Financial Planner – is joined by James Boyle – Lead Financial Planner at Plan First Wealth – to break down the UK’s 25% retirement lump sum, or PCLS. Many expats want to bring that lump sum with them when they move to the United States because it’s tax-free in the UK. However, the only way to obtain a definitive interpretation of the US UK tax treaty is through court proceedings. Until then, the guidance of qualified cross-border tax professionals is essential when reviewing the treaty’s provisions on retirement funds. In this episode of We're The Brits In America, Richard and James explore: · The 25% tax-free lump sum from UK pensions and its potential tax implications in the US. · The ambiguity of tax treaties between the US and UK and how this affects pension income. · The importance of engaging with qualified cross-border tax professionals.
