I don’t think the Windsors are inbred at all. Charles married a commoner twice, Andrew married a commoner, William married a commoner as did Harry. The Queen married into one of the royal houses but she hardly seems inbred to me. Her sister had two marriages, both to commoners. The Windsors themselves, have always been thought as interlopers in England.

Man, how’d you like to be the guy working at H&R Block and looking out the window and seeing Meghan and Harry pull up?

As long as she does not claim Harry as a dependent and does a married-filing separate return there should not be an issue as Harry should not have an ITIN so not eligible to file.

Meghan had to agree to become a British citizen before the Queen would allow the marriage.
She is already in the process of doing that.
The author failed to do his homework.

Who could not care less about two people on the United Kingdom getting married? I don’t.

I believe the consensus of the Queen’s net worth is about $500 million, not 32 trillion as you have stated.

Not exactly. When you renounce US citizenship the US will wait 10 years from what I have read (meanwhile one is still tax liable) to make sure you are sincere.

$30 trillion? Really doubtful.

I realized this morning that this article missed one key point about this marriage and taxes. While it is entirely correct about the tax filing status of the former Meghan Markle. It missed a key point about Prince Harry.

Had Meghan Markle just married Harry Mountbatten-Windsor it would be correct. But she didn’t. She married HRH the Duke of Sussex, a working member of a foreign Royal Family, who travels on a diplomatic passport and is not subject to US law. That is going complicate matters for the IRS.

She’s fully subject to US tax law, but he isn’t.

I don't have enough knowledge to know if my situation was unusual or not. But I certainly wish the bite had been less. Lol... Yes I did get credit for the foreign side of the income based taxes but still had a USA liability remaining with the net effect that my total tax load was greater than if it had been one country taxing instead of two.

She will get money from suits and movies for the rest of her life. She should take her five million and put it in an account and have an accountant in the United States take care of her taxes. She can live in harry’s Little money.

Yes. When I lived overseas, the first $75,000 was free of US tax, but everything above that was double taxed, with credit for foreign taxes paid, up to a point that I never reached. However, the foreign national health and social security weren’t included in the credit, so it was pretty much a wash with me.

There are Britons who to this day refer to Queen Elizabeth II as “that German woman”.

I’ll bet she doesn’t speak a word of Deutsch.

“She’ll renounce her citizenship.”

Or, he’ll renounce his.

And, we’ll have another immigrant to support.
