How to Navigate Tax and Employee Benefits Hurdles That May Arise With Foreign Employees in the U.S.

In this webinar, Will Woolston, a Partner in Covington’s Employee Benefits and Executive Compensation practice, and Mike Chittenden, Of Counsel in Covington’s Tax and Employee Benefits and Executive Compensation practices, will provide practical guidance and tips for employers of nonresidents of the United States who are sent to work in the United States.

In addition to fundamentals, like the general rules for treaty coverage related to short-term assignments to the United States and Totalization Agreement for social insurance taxes, the program will discuss more advanced topics such as proactive considerations for equity arrangements to ensure compliance with or the inapplicability of various provisions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.
