What is the mission of GlobalTaxHelp.Com?

This web page started in 1997 as the on-line international tax consulting arm of the professional accounting services firm of Donald Walter, CPA, based in Seattle, Washington, USA.

Founded in 1991, the small, specialized firm has focused on providing international income and estate tax expertise to U.S citizens, estates and small businesses, and to resident and non-resident aliens with U.S. tax exposure.

Tax issues become MUCH more complex when you live and/or work or do business offshore, yet you still should not have to pay any more than your legal obligation - taking full advantage of any existing foreign tax or expense credits or deductions.  Our goal is to largely relieve you of having to weave through this complex maze of tax credits, deductions - and traps - on your own.  Expert, personalized, tax help is only an e-mail away - at worst!
