Get your taxes done using TurboTax

a/ Montenegro

b/ Yes I have US citizenship 

c/ The purchase price will be around $385K. 

Since I will be transferring money to my sister account, is this considered a gift  for tax purposes. even though she is going to buy property for me and in my name. I gave her authorization to do that.

Then I need to file form 709 correct? I was told, if i send money oversees to any account other than my own, it is considered a gift, no  exceptions.

My understanding is that I won't owe any taxes until 12 Million limit is reached. 

 

Thanks
