The Foreign Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) applies to any US citizen or resident of the US for tax purposes. These include:
- anyone born in the US (who has not renounced US citizenship)
- US citizens (including persons with dual or multiple citizenships)
- US lawful permanent residents (e.g. green card holders).
If you're unsure whether it applies to you we recommend you seek professional advice from a qualified tax professional. If you'd like more information, please refer to the ATO website.
