The IRS is getting lazy but the Official Taxpatriates Page isn't. The "Service" is late with the 3rd Quarter taxpatriates list but our page continues to improve anyway. Apparently The IRS' International District which has issued the taxpats list ever since it began, has been reorganized out of existence. Its functions have been transferred to the Philadelphia Service Center and the famous Doug Rogers who has signed every list issued so far has been given new responsibilities. We wait with baited breath for the 3rd Quarter list so we can find out who's in charge these days. Meanwhile, we've added some more articles on taxpatriation http://www.forbes.com/forbes/1997/0616/5912016a.html http://www.frissell.com/taxpat/Whatabout.htm and added JFile and MobileDB databases of taxpatriates for those who use Palm devices. (These databases have also been contributed to the Memoware site: http://www.memoware.com/cgi-bin/mwsearch.cgi?Any=taxpatriate.) http://www.frissell.com/taxpat/taxpats.pdb http://www.frissell.com/taxpat/taxpatpb.pdb Question for the taxpatriates who read this list (we know you're out there). Have you filled out IRS form 8854 http://ftp.fedworld.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8854.pdf and ratted out your income and assets at the time of expatriation? If your income is more than $110K per year or your net worth is more than $500K, you are assumed to have expatriated to avoid taxes. As always, the Official Taxpatriates Page can be found at: http://www.frissell.com/taxpat/taxpats.html DCF ---- "You don't have to be nice to nation states you meet on the way up if you're not coming back down!"
