Gerry Scott sits down with cross-border tax attorney Alexey Manasuev from U.S. Tax IQ, to unpack what you really need to know about U.S. and Canadian tax obligations. From foreign retirement accounts to FBAR requirements and residency status, this conversation is packed with insights that could save you thousands—and a major compliance headache.

FBAR filing is mandatory if your foreign accounts exceed $10,000
Non-compliance comes with steep financial penalties
The U.S.-Canada tax treaty doesn’t override filing responsibilities
Residency status plays a central role in determining obligations
Business owners can use strategic planning to manage cross-border tariffs
Decision trees can help clarify complex filing questions
A qualified tax advisor can make all the difference
