IB withheld $100k as tax.

That's decent money in which you should have a personal professional tax account that you consult instead of seeking answers from anonymous posters that a few know already you're not telling the whole story.

even more exclusive!

 

Trend2009 is a troll. He has started a lot of these types of threads and then then never replies to them

Very exclusive, never saw a second one.

 

damn. I always wanted one of those. Maybe after my 2nd hundred billion.

 

my friend sent IB a message saying the tax form was updated and asked for the refund. after 2 days, the fund returned. a lot of countries have tax treaty with US so that income would not be double charged by two governments. for some countries, the capital gain tax is fortunately very low or almost zero.

 

That's what the problem was:tax form not correct or non existing.

If there would have been a problem, IB could have been held responsible for the 30% taxation by the IRS that would have followed.

 

I like how:

OP starts thread on a Thursday.

I say it’s a troll thread on a friday.

and then OP says the funds were returned two days later on that same friday.

 

You do not understand ET. It is a perfect world where problems are solved before they exits in the first place.

 

Everyone manages 20mm and if they don’t it’s because they “are keeping it real.”
