Description

The IRS final regulations and guidance for foreign tax credits provide details on determining allowable foreign tax credits, allocating those tax credits, income-sourcing standards, and clarification on other vital issues. These regulations and guidance are critical to foreign tax planning and compliance, requiring tax practitioners to align planning methods with the new rules.

The final regulations guide practitioners on many technical issues for applying for the foreign tax credit. The final rules provide clarity on critical issues. Others need further guidance, such as (1) ensuring that the newly modified income-sourcing standards align with taxpayer's current tax compliance and planning methods, (2) rules relating to FDII and how these new regulations are applied, (3) determination of foreign income taxes subject to the provisions of Section 245A(d), (4) sourcing of inclusions under Sections 951, 951A, and 129, and (5) rules for the allocation and apportionment of certain expenses and for assigning foreign income taxes to different income groups for various purposes.

These final regulations are critical to U.S. taxpayers applying for the foreign tax credit and resolving foreign tax audits.

Listen as our panel discusses the final regulations and recent guidance for the foreign tax credit, tax planning for foreign income, the allocation of expenses, assigning foreign taxes to baskets and income groups, rules relating to FDII, sourcing of inclusions under Sections 951, 951A, and 1293, and other essential issues.
