Excerpt from Practical US/International Tax Strategies by Bob Ackerman, David J. Canale, Karen Kirwan, Carlos Mallo, Mike Patton, Leigh Anne Pasak and Peyton Robinson (Ernst & Young LLP)
Transfer pricing will undoubtedly become a more significant focus of attention for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in their examinations of multinational corporations (MNCs). In a statement regarding international tax reform on May 4, 2009, President Obama announced that the IRS will “hire nearly 800 more IRS agents” to increase international tax enforcement efforts.
Concurrent with his remarks, the White House issued a press release commenting on the President’s proposal, indicating that the budget would provide the IRS with funds “to hire new agents, economists, lawyers, and specialists, increasing the IRS’s ability to crack down on offshore tax avoidance, often done through transfer pricing and financial products.” Despite the Administration’s recent announcements reflecting greater scrutiny of international tax issues, nevertheless, there may still be a public perception that the President’s plan will not cover transfer pricing. On May 5, 2009, the New York Times published an article citing different sources indicating that transfer pricing was the “one tax loophole open” in the plan. This perception—wholly without merit—may incite Congress to demand that the Treasury Department and the IRS enforce compliance with transfer pricing even more aggressively.

I'm impressed, I have to admit. Seldom do I encounter a blog that's both educative and amusing, and without a doubt, you've hit the nail on the head. The issue is something that not enough folks are speaking intelligently about. Now i'm very happy I found this during my hunt for something regarding this.

I could not have closed on my first home without Mr, Pedro ! Pedro and his team went above and beyond for me on this transaction. He handled my very tight turn around time with ease and was always available for me when I had questions (and I had plenty), even when he was away from the office, which I greatly appreciated! He and his team handled many last-minute scrambles with the seller and worked tirelessly to make sure that I could close before my lease (and my down payment assistance, for that matter) expired. Mr Pedro is an incredibly knowledgeable Loan Officer, courteous, and patient. I went through a couple offers on properties before my final purchase and Pedro was there to help with each one, often coordinating with my agent behind the scenes. I felt supported throughout the entire process. Thanks to Pedro and the tireless efforts of his team, I am now a proud homeowner! I would encourage you to consider Pedro and his loan company for any kind of loan.
