Let us guide you toward financial clarity and success.

Executing your financial plan is paramount. We can help drive this process through a collaborative approach, leveraging our extensive network of professionals such as cross-border accountants, estate planning lawyers, investment advisors and beyond.

US Citizens Living in Canada

Living in Canada as a US citizen, or Green Card holder, brings unique challenges, especially when it comes to taxes. Navigating the complex requirements of both countries’ tax systems can be overwhelming, with potential pitfalls (PFICs, Foreign Trusts, etc.) and penalties for missteps. At i2 Wealth, we understand the intricacies of cross-border taxation and are here to simplify your life. Our goal is to ensure that you understand the regulations thoroughly and stay compliant, allowing you to seize financial opportunities with peace of mind.

Clients with Assets on Both Sides of the Border

Many of our clients come to us years after their move, seeking clarity and comprehensive planning for their cross-border finances. With assets spanning both Canada and the United States — from retirement accounts like 401(k)s and Roth IRAs to real estate and pensions — navigating the intricacies of cross-border financial planning can be daunting. Local advisors often lack the expertise to provide the holistic cross-border guidance needed in such situations. At i2 Wealth, we specialize in helping clients like you make the most of their financial plans. We understand the unique challenges you face and are equipped to develop tailored strategies that take all your assets into account. Let us be your trusted partner in achieving your financial goals on both sides of the border. With our expertise and personalized approach, we’ll ensure that your cross-border finances are optimized for success.
