American Big Landlord

v1 Chapter 16: Taxation

"It discriminates against female xing, and now we pay attention to equality between men and women. Uncle is wrong to do this." Zhao Jie said angrily.

Jessie Chou was helpless. "Sister, you are in the United States. The national conditions are different. Besides, the people of the celestial dynasty didn't believe this. They passed on from generation to generation, raised their children to guard against the old, died and passed away, and burned paper in front of the grave. What's more. Even in the US empire, it is not necessarily equal to men and women. Otherwise, there are so many feminist movements." Zhou Jiexi helplessly explained to this long-immigrant man.

"Okay, okay, I see, I haven't been away from the celestial court for a long time. I don't seem to know anything about it. I don't want to say this." Zhao Jie waved his hand and said, after a pause, Zhou Jiexi turned his mouth. Zhang just wanted to talk, and Zhao Jie started to talk again, and Zhou Jiexi had to swallow the words into her mouth. "Jesse, you didn't make it clear on the phone, what are you doing in America?" Zhao Jie asked again.

At this time, Jessie Chou said to Zhao Jie more seriously: "Sister Jie, I have a property to inherit, so I want to ask you to look at it. After all, I don't know anything in the United States, so I'm bothering you."

Zhao Jie nodded, "Oh", and then "Ah. What? Property inheritance? How much? Whose? Your relatives?" Zhao Jie asked several questions in succession.

"Oh, don't ask that much at once." Zhou Jiexi complained and explained to Zhao Jie, after all, she will have to rely on her in the next few days. "The two old people should have given them some help for me. They might die soon, so they want to give me some extraneous things, a larger number. Specifically, we said after parking, The car was said to be unsafe. Zhou Jiexi did not say too clearly, nor did he say the money figures. After all, he was still on the road. If Zhao Jie couldn’t stand the excitement and drove the car out, he would call him the first to be the first. Die."

Zhao Jie also nodded and didn't say more. He was surprised just now, so there were some things that shouldn't be said, and now he was a little upset when he asked. The two talked about some fun and embarrassing things when they were young, and when they arrived at the hotel that Jessie Chou had booked, the distance between the two of them got closer. Of course, it was not the distance between men and women.

And the most important thing is that Zhao Jie is so mediocre and he wears a pair of glasses. Apart from his good temperament and body, Jessie Chou really has nothing to do with him. I said that I had known each other since I was a child, and I was still a friend of my sister, so I couldn't have that idea. If something went wrong, I would be responsible. Zhou Jiexi has no plans to get married right now.

The two came to the hotel booked by Jessie Chou online, which is the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills. Four Seasons Hotel is a hotel with a very beautiful environment. Each of her rooms has a duli balcony. The modern decoration style is simple and generous, which is more suitable for tourists who like simplicity and comfort. The interior is also very luxurious. Each room is equipped with a flat-screen TV and an internet docking station. When you are tired, you can directly enjoy the Beverly Hills spelled Hollywood by the letters from the window. Moreover, it is only ten minutes' drive from downtown Hollywood, and only one block away from the shopping center, which is very convenient for playing and shopping.

Stepping into the luxurious facilities inside the hotel, a breath of jing and luxury comes to your face, and the gorgeous chandeliers shine brightly in the lobby. Jessie Chou walked to the reception desk in the lobby, blurted out her fluent standard of English, and gave the identity certificate to the waiter. The waiter immediately helped Zhou Jiexi check in. Zhou Jiexi booked a large one-bedroom suite. After all, it may be one person or two people. If it is crazy, it is still possible to add a few people.

Now Jessie Chou has to be kind to herself, decided to enjoy life well, and cherish the hard-won opportunities. If she suddenly wakes up from a dream and hasn't enjoyed anything, it's not that Yu cried without tears.

After finishing the check-in procedure, Zhou Jiexi did not go to the guest room, but invited Zhao Jie to have a cup of coffee. There is a restaurant in the hotel. Zhao Jie received Zhou Jiexi’s invitation and did not refuse, because she knew that Zhou Jiexi was going to talk about the important thing. The two exchanged ideas about Zhao Jie and knew how to help Zhou Jiexi.

When they went to the restaurant, the two asked the waiter to find a remote and quiet corner. They ordered a cup of coffee and gave the waiter a tip. Just like in the movie, all services in the U.S. are tipped. Of course, how much you give is sometimes not something you can do if you want to. That way, everyone will look down on you. In some places, you will directly write that you should give a tip of no less than a minimum, and there must be a minimum tip. But this is a phenomenon formed by society after all, so it is better to follow the public.

Jessie Chou took a sip of coffee to moisturize his throat, and said to Zhao Jie, "The old man he rescued, and their entrusted lawyer called him and said that the old man had a large amount of fortune to be handed over to him. Ask him to come to the United States. Los Angeles is here to sign the documents, so he wants to see her with him. After all, there is something to be prepared for, and a defensive heart is necessary."

In fact, Zhou Jiejing's caution is completely unnecessary. After all, the old man has not passed away. He is only entrusting a lawyer to transfer it. There are accounting audits, financial appraisers, and third-party zhèngfu witnesses. Therefore, the property is not authorized, and the bank and zhèngfu will not let anyone transfer it.

And such a transfer to zhèngfu will make a lot of money. The U.S. imperialism tax system is very complete, and the wealth of the dead and the living must be inserted. It is hoped that many people will transfer the gift, so that the wealth can be restored. distribution.

"Xiaojie, let's put it this way, the US zhèngfu levies high taxes on personal asset transfers. Although this type of tax is commonly called inheritance tax, it actually includes three types of personal asset transfer taxes: one is inheritance tax, and the other is inheritance tax. The gift tax is the third generation asset transfer tax. In 1916, the federal zhèngfu only levied an inheritance tax. Later, in order to prevent the transfer of the inheritance to the next or several generations of children through gifts and trusts during their lifetimes, the inheritance tax was evaded. The federal zhèngfu has successively levied gift tax and intergenerational inheritance transfer tax. Since 1977, the U.S. inheritance tax and gift tax have been subject to a uniform tax rate table."

Jiexi Chou nodded, indicating that he understood.

Zhao Jie took a sip of coffee and then said: "Hehe, let me tell you, inheritance in the United States is a troublesome thing, that is, the inheritance tax must be paid by the heirs, and the tax is paid before the inheritance and distribution of the property. The law stipulates , The administrator or executor of the will must be responsible for paying taxes in cash within 9 months after the death of the original property owner before the distribution of the estate can be carried out. If the temporary money is not enough, you can apply for an extension of payment, but the deadline is also Must not exceed 6 months."

"Ah, what about me?" After hearing this, Zhou Jiexi was very disappointed, and wondered how many billions I would have to pay.

Zhao Jie waved his hand and asked him to listen to what he said, "Paying the tax first and then dividing the property has become the biggest criticism of the U.S. estate tax, because this method will cause the inheritor to fall into the predicament of not being able to pay taxes on time due to insufficient cash. Of course, the U.S. estate tax. Not all inheritances acquired by heirs must be taxed. The inheritance left by a person can first be deducted from debts, funeral expenses, charitable donations, and then personal exemptions, and then the remaining inherited property will be taxed."

"You have to pay the gift tax. If the old man passes away, you may not get the money. After all, you don’t talk about the direct or collateral heirs. You are not. You have to pay a sum of money to get the money. It can't be done in a short time."

Jiexi Zhou nodded again and agreed, "Then what should I do?" Jessie Zhou said.

"In the United States, gift tax is to prevent the rich from leaving money for future generations to take advantage of the loopholes. When a person gives away his own property to his descendants or others while alive, zhèngfu will levy a gift tax. So rich Americans do it. There are many people who donate to charity, and those who can leave all of their property to future generations can hardly find it. All this is due to the "Uncle Sam" who has put in here. Although the property is earned by you, "Sam "Uncle" must be like the son of a rich man, equally sharing the property left after the death of the old man. "Uncle Sam" is not enough to be a "son", but to be a "father", who of you wants to transfer the property to while you are alive Descendants or others must first pay tribute to the "old man". At this time, it is not called an inheritance tax but a gift tax."

"The U.S. emperor is so cruel, don't just stick in everything. Kao." Zhou Jiexi complained.

Zhao Jie glared at Zhou Jiexi, "No interruption, no swearing."

Jessie Zhou quickly made a zipper movement with her hand on her mouth, and then made a move. Please continue the group fight without interruption.

Zhao Jie looked funny, but said refreshingly, "But you are okay. Giving property to offspring while Americans are alive has an advantage over leaving inheritance to offspring after death. That is, it will not cause offspring or beneficiaries to pay taxes. The trouble is that the gift tax is paid by the donor, and the beneficiary only obtains the property and does not need to pay the tax. This avoids the possibility that the beneficiary cannot get the inheritance due to the fact that the beneficiary has no cash to pay the inheritance tax. An awkward situation arises."

Jessie Chou suddenly showed a peach blossom, it was like a roller coaster. "Then I can get this money without paying taxes? Zhou Jiejing said happily.

"Well, but at that time, you will have to ask a financial planner and an accountant to work together. This is so cost-effective. After all, you are still a citizen of the Chinese dynasty, and you may have to pay personal income tax. Then call a lawyer to plan. If you are a US citizen, you can if you don’t want to. Apply for a green card first, and then plan again, and the taxes in the Celestial Dynasty can be avoided. However, the tax system of the Celestial Dynasty is based on the territorial principle, that is, where you are, you pay taxes. So I will look into it, and it may not It's a matter. But it's better to be naturalized, so that you can take care of the property you inherit here. And now I heard that there are a lot of immigrants from the Chinese dynasty. Don't you feel pressure on this?"

Zhou Jiexi weighed the gains and losses. People don't want to kill themselves, and the fat in hand has to give the group of pigs a bite, give them a ride, drink a good wine, go to a beautiful girl, and pack two nǎi. How does it feel like someone else goes to piáo, and I have to pay for them. I feel sick even thinking about it. "Haha, it's okay, I don't care about this, I am actually a stateless person, the earth is the same, everywhere is the same, the name of mankind will not change." Zhou Jiexi did not change sè shamelessly. Said.

Zhao Jie doesn't say anything about this. All love is valuable, and it can't be considered as long as the price is right. What's more, it's still a lot of money, and no one wants to change it. Moreover, if you have such a large amount of money in the heavens, it is not necessarily safe. The law of the cāo eggs in the heavens, ha ha. . . . . . . It is better for the American emperor to be more comprehensive, of course it refers to legal property.

The two chatted casually and agreed to go to the office together tomorrow. After drinking the coffee, Zhao Jie said he was embarrassed to leave first, and there was a fiance in the family who said he wanted to surprise her. After hearing this, Zhou Jiejing, where can I say something? The young couple increase their relationship, and you still want to be Cheng Yaojin. So he asked the checkout to get up and send her out.
