nannab Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 So we wait until Trump is in before we exchange our money? 8 hours ago, fnbplanet said: Foreign currency guidance under section 987 Notice 2017-07 On December 7, 2016, the Department of the Treasury (Treasury Department) and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) filed with the Federal Register Treasury Decision 9795, which includes temporary regulations under §1.987-12T relating to the recognition and deferral of foreign currency gain or loss under section 987 with respect to a qualified business unit in connection with a deferral event or outbound loss event. Section 1.987-12T(j)(1) provides that §1.987-12T generally applies to any deferral event or outbound loss event that occurs on or after January 6, 2017. Under §1.987-12T(j)(2), however, §1.987-12T also applies to any deferral event or outbound loss event that occurs on or after December 7, 2016, if such deferral event or outbound loss event is undertaken with a principal purpose of recognizing section 987 gain or loss. In order to prevent abuse, §1.987-12T(j)(2) will be modified so that §1.987-12T also will apply to any deferral event or outbound loss event that is undertaken with a principal purpose of recognizing section 987 gain or loss and that occurs as a result of an entity classification election made under §301.7701-3 that is filed on or after December 22, 2016, and that is effective before December 7, 2016. Additionally, §1.987-12T(j)(1) will be modified so that §1.987-12T also will apply to any deferral event or outbound loss event that occurs as a result of an entity classification election made under §301.7701-3 that is filed on or after January 6, 2017, and that is effective before January 6, 2017. The principal author of this notice is Steven D. Jensen of the Office of Associate Chief Counsel (International).

unirod Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 One must admit it's pretty interesting how much interest our IRS is showing in the structure of Iraq's tax code! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fnbplanet Posted December 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 Again, seek professional advice. My plan is to NOT rush to the bank with all of my dinar and see what kind of special treatment or reduced exchange fees that I can get. I will most probably wander in with a 1000 dinar note and see what they can do for me, and observe "the process". I'll be tuning in here to see what others are experiencing. I've waited this long, so I plan on NOT rushing in and making huge mistakes. I'll choose my advisors wisely, and research them carefully. My GUESS is that there may be an initial low rate, like 1:1, followed a few weeks later by their higher, real intended rate. If I'm wrong, the currency will still be good for years. I believe the value will go UP, and the taxes on that money will come DOWN. Been po this long, I can wait a month and learn from everyone else's mistakes and successes! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unirod Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 Manny99, Your right and I read it wrong. However there have been recent articles in regards to our IRS advising Iraq on setting up their tax code as well as identifying money laundering.

One must assume when they are speaking of foreign currency that the IQD must be included as a foreign currency as well, also I think we have seen articles of the IRS spending time advising at the CBI, just reading between the lines without blinders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennyc Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 We must admit, this is a GREAT window to be in. The wheels are certainly spinning quite nicely. Security is coming, Abadi is doing his job as PM. Trump the biz man is taking office SOON. Looks like things are lining up for a GREAT 17.

Xtaxguy Posted December 23, 2016 Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 I'm getting really bored having to address the annual amateur panic over IRC sections that have absolutely NOTHING to do with the taxation of the pie-in-the-sky profit hopes of the dinar INVESTORS who gather here. The code sections in the upper 900's you stress over deal with only two types of currency transactions: 1. Trivial, non-business gains or losses on PERSONAL transactions (typically small gains or losses incurred on currency conversions when traveling); and, 2. Currency gains/losses incurred incident to THE ACTIVE CONDUCT OF A TRADE OR BUSINESS. Buying dinars in the hope of gains from its appreciation against the dollar is an INVESTMENT transaction unless you are in the currency trading business, and that would require you to be doing many trades a day in multiple currencies. Think of your D's as shares of stock. They will be taxed in exactly the same way. You should know how investors in stocks are taxed when they sell their shares, and if you don't, you sure as hell should not be investing in anything! But what do I know? I was only a tax department managing partner in a national CPA firm with many international business clients and a tax manager in a Fortune 500 company with world wide businesses and investments (that is an either/or characterization for each individual activity or asset). If you want all the details so you can decide whether my views are correct, feel free to hire an expert (starting at around $400,000 a year) to explain it all to you. Shouldn't take more than a few years if you're a quick study. 3 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
