Description:

On 17 June 2008, President Bush signed into law a USD1.2 billion military tax relief package, which includes an Exit Tax on U.S. citizens and long-term green card holders who expatriate from the United States. The Exit Tax is part of the Heroes Earnings Assistance and Relief Tax Act (HEART) of 2008. Although the Exit Tax has been seriously considered by Congress in the past, the measure has never been approved by both Houses of Congress, usually because of disputes over the provisions the Exit Tax was meant to fund.
