An 83(b) election is a decision made by the shareholders of the entity whereby the IRS allows vested stock/shares to be taxed at formation (purchase date) instead of when the actual shares/stock vests, that is, if the stock has any value to be taxed when the entity is formed.
The US Bureau of Economic Analysis (“BEA”) uses this form to collect data on the acquisition of US companies by foreign owners/investors. The form should be filed for new formations or if a US company expands its production line in the US.

I have been working with them for years now. An exceptional team of professionals, the managers and business owners are experts in what they do. Sometimes I felt that they are slow but I realized that they always triple checked before giving their expert opinion, they even bring/consult core experts in many cases. Which perfectly suits the industry in which they work.
Cleer is highly systematized, and at the same time has top-caliber professionals at every essential point of contact. This means excellent service and an effective way of accessing relevant information. To my knowledge, no one else comes close. We consider ourselves lucky to be their clients.
I am a foreigner using Cleer Tax & Acct. services for the last year. My knowledge of US tax regulations is rather limited so I am highly dependent of clear guidance. The professionalism of the Clear team can only be compared to their swiftness and thoroughness. Thanks for your invaluable assistance in navigating in this territory that is unknown to me.
