You can if you meet the critera, with proof. Very few people would https://ibkr.info/node/3783

I dont believe there was any discussion about money laundering (They go through the regular KYC checks,collect & report tax details as required and are regulated by the relevant US authorities ) these regulations are related to customer protection rules only, I am still unclear if they actually...

I wasnt aware of this as a large number of reputable US brokerages allow non residents in a number of countries open brokerage accounts. Can you share some details to which regulation prevents this?

Unless you qualify as a professional investor IB wont let you buy US ETFs. Tradestation/tastyworks/firsttrade would, the first 2 allow funds transfers using currencyfair the best fx route

Thanks for the details. I'm not an expert by any means, but it's quite a lot of money to spend to remodel a house for the size & spec. If it was me personally I would be waiting for a while unless I really needed the extra space now, a gamble I know. I would also want to be sure I could sell it...

@Aliwag thanks for sharing the details it's interesting/scary to see these costs, we are considering doing a job also. Could you share the sqm of new build and refurbishment. I assume with that level of budget you have specified to bugest for higher end finishes and A rating the existing...

If I record a loss of €100 this year with revenue and in 5 years time record a separate gain of €100 (ignoring the annual exemption), they would obviously be able to net both out and I would have no liability. Otherwise I am telling them twice about the loss.

I was hoping to reduce the admin required and record it in the year incurred with the revenue and at a later date claim against it for gct. Are you saying I would still need to enter the loss again when I am trying to use it? Also any details on which online form/system to record it would be...

Hi couple of questions around this, hopefully someone can help. Do you need to do a CGT return if its just recording a loss? Will revenue automatically take this off future gains, or do I need to keep track of this? I am a regular PAYE employee, can I file for CGT on MyAccount. I dont see any...

I invested in 2. 1 directly (new film studio) went to plan got c55% return on plan another via a fund in Davy, which is due to pay out this year. That's been a bit of a pain administratively, some investments didn't get approved by revenue, some went under some got bought out part way through...

True as am young and healthy the risk is alot less. Obviously this becomes more of a risk as you get older, but who knows what tax system will be in place by then, I'll have to review this approach over time.

Sorry miss read the comment. If it's non us domiciled, regardless of where it invests your not liable for US estate tax, assuming your not a US resident/national

They do allow this, there are a few other also. Check. Out https://www.askaboutmoney.com/threads/us-domiciled-etf-via-us-broker-analysis.223853/

Just an update. I decided to proceed with this via Tradestation and just purchased my first ETF with them (VT). Setup was very quick with them (few days) and customer services were very responsive. I did the FX via currencyfair and had a wire transfer ($20 intermediary bank charge + $4...

If you read the thread above you will see this doesnt help and you still have a libility for the withholdings tax

Thanks I have seen those approaches. It would remove the us estate tax and the risk of the US broker preventing me purchasing US ETFs. It does open you up to the additional complexity, costs, additional taxable event(I think) and risk of options trading and as a result of these disadvantages I...

For a monthly longterm investor it is a pain tracking it, especially if your buying more than 1 etf per month. You also don't have the ability to offset losses, even in the same investment so you could pay tax in a year even with an overall loss. Your going to be exposed to some currency risks...

@Marc @Steven Barrett Thanks for the clarification, makes sense. I'll look into that a bit more then. Any other comments on the overall approach?
