Welcome to EO Radio Show—Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. I'm Cynthia Rowland, and today's episode introduces several critical compliance topics relevant to international grantmaking by U.S. public charities and private foundations. These are the antiterrorism rules, income tax withholding rules, and special rules for private foundations.
These "basics" episodes touch on the rules for U.S. charitable organizations that make grants to organizations or individuals not resident in the United States. Grantmakers need to be aware of a couple of general requirements, and private foundations also have an extra set of concerns to ensure that the expenditure outside the United States is not penalized as a taxable expenditure. The private foundation grantmakers also want to be sure that the expenditure does count towards its minimum distribution requirement. I'll start this series with an episode focused on introducing the Patriot Act rules that apply to all grants, international and domestic.
In the next episode of this series, I'll provide a brief overview of the income tax withholding rules that apply to payments for services that come into play when making a grant to an international organization that may provide some services in the United States.
The third installment of this series will focus specifically on the special private foundation rules, expenditure responsibility, equivalency determination, and other techniques used by private foundations that make grants to international organizations.
