If you’re a Kiwi who’s worked in the US, or an American citizen relocating to New Zealand, you’ll have some finances to move here along with your shipping container. On the surface it might seem as simple as closing your accounts and starting to pay New Zealand tax. In reality, tax, regulatory and administrative requirements are complex, and potentially costly, if you get it wrong.
So we’ve asked James Howard, Head of US Client Services with financial and wealth management firm Cambridge Partners, to explain the ins and outs in our latest Mobile Expert Interview.
You’ll learn about:
Why moving your finances from the US to New Zealand is so complicated
Examples of the types of fish-hooks and unexpected issues people face
What you can do to manage the risks
