Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a mobile device and method for determining a number of days before a tax liability trigger. In one embodiment, a mobile device receives location information identifying a country that the mobile device is present in and tracks a number of days the mobile device is present in the country. The mobile device determines a number of days before a tax liability trigger occurs in the country based on the tracked number of days and tax information of the user of the mobile device, and then displays the number of days before the tax liability trigger.

Claims

1. A method for determining a number of days before a tax liability trigger, the method comprising:

performing the following steps in a mobile device comprising a processor and a memory storing tax information of a user of the mobile device;

receiving location information identifying a country that the mobile device is present in;

tracking a number of days the mobile device is present in the country;

determining a number of days before a tax liability trigger occurs in the country based on the tracked number of days and the tax information of the user of the mobile device; and

displaying the number of days before the tax liability trigger.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the steps are repeated for a plurality of countries.

3. The method of claim 1 further comprising receiving the tax information from the user via a user input device of the mobile device.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the location information is received from a global positioning system.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the location information is received from a user input device of the mobile device.

6. The method of claim 1 further comprising displaying the number of days before the tax liability trigger in a map.

7. The method of claim 1 further comprising displaying the number of days before the tax liability trigger in a list.

8. The method of claim 1 further comprising displaying the tracked number of days.

9. The method of claim 1 further comprising displaying one or more of passport and/or visa requirements for the country.

10. The method of claim 1 further comprising exporting the tracked number of days and/or the determined number of days to an external computing device.

11. A mobile device comprising:

a memory configured to store tax information of a user of the mobile device;

a display; and

a processor in communication with the memory and the display, wherein the processor is configured to;

receive location information identifying a country that the mobile device is present in;

track a number of days the mobile device is present in the country;

determine a number of days before a tax liability trigger occurs in the country based on the tracked number of days and the tax information of the user of the mobile device; and

display the number of days before the tax liability trigger.

12. The mobile device of claim 11, wherein the processor is configured to repeat the steps for a plurality of countries.

13. The mobile device of claim 11, wherein the processor is configured to receive the tax information from the user via a user input device of the mobile device.

14. The mobile device of claim 11, wherein the location information is received from a global positioning system.

15. The mobile device of claim 11, wherein the location information is received from a user input device of the mobile device.

16. The mobile device of claim 11, wherein the processor is configured to display the number of days before the tax liability trigger in a map.

17. The mobile device of claim 11, wherein the processor is configured to display the number of days before the tax liability trigger in a list.

18. The mobile device of claim 11, wherein the processor is configured to display the tracked number of days.

19. The mobile device of claim 11, wherein the processor is configured to display passport and/or visa requirements for the country.

20. The mobile device of claim 11, wherein the processor is configured to export the tracked number of days and/or the determined number of days to an external computing device.
