US Tax treatment of ULC or LLC established in Canada

Post by jk3805 »

Thanks in advance for any help.
I am a dual citizen (US and Cnd) looking to try to establish a ULC or LLC in Canada (I work as a physician) however the question of US taxation of this entity is in question. Is there any difference in how the IRS treats Canadian ULC vs LLC corporations? I am looking to establish a corp to allow investment in Canada and to hold funds in Canada without increased tax exposure in the US.

Thanks
