Highlights of This Issue

These synopses are intended only as aids to the reader in identifying the subject matter covered. They may not be relied upon as authoritative interpretations.

INCOME TAX

This notice provides guidance under section 877A of the Code, which was enacted by section 301 of the Heroes Earnings Assistance and Relief Act of 2008 (the “Act”) and applies to individuals who expatriate on or after June 17, 2008. Section 877A generally provides that all property of a “covered expatriate” is treated as sold on the day before the individual’s expatriation date. Gain and loss from the deemed sale must be taken into account at that time (subject to a $600,000 exclusion amount, which will be indexed for inflation) unless the individual elects to defer payment of the tax by providing security and waiving treaty rights that would prevent assessment or collection of the deferred tax. There are special rules for deferred compensation items, specified tax deferred accounts, and interests in nongrantor trusts.
