Can a US resident transfer a UK pension to a The Overseas Pension – QROPS?
The trustees would consider the transfer if the client has taken specific US tax advice and the opinion was favourable. The client would need to share the written advice with the trustees. We are aware of developments to structure a QROPS that is compatible with US tax laws and we hope to have further information available in the near future.
