I am set to receive a substantial amount of money when my father passes and I want to know the best way I can go about this. A little about me: I am a permanent resident, I still am a US citizen, but I don’t have anything in the US as far as bank accounts are concerned or anything really.
I understand I need to pay a percentage in taxes here but, what would be the easiest way to receive such an amount of money without complications? Would it be easier to go to the US, open an account, then transfer that way? Should I speak to a lawyer in the US to help me with this?
