Topics include: • Strategies for Maximizing Investment Returns and Property Value

This presentation will provide critical new information and ideas on how to deal with your retirement plan and protect your assets from creditors. The recent economic crisis has spawned new legislation, problems and opportunities which directly affect your planning process and financial security. Included in this seminar are comprehensive illustrations and essential information to help physicians decide how to use asset protection techniques and effectively implement current retirement planning tools. Topics include: • Asset Protection in the New Economy • Understanding the New Rules for IRA and Retirement Plan Withdrawals

New: Travel Approval Required for Visa Waiver Countries Visa Waiver Program (VWP) countries are now required to obtain approval through the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) prior to traveling to the United States. This requirement applies to all eligible citizens or nationals traveling under the VWP. ESTA is a Web-based system that determines the preliminary eligibility of visitors to travel under the VWP prior to boarding a carrier to the United States. It collects the same information as the paper I-94W form that VWP travelers currently fill out en route to the United States. Travelers without an approved ESTA are advised, however, that they may be denied boarding, experience delayed processing, or be denied admission at a U.S. port of entry. Visitors may apply for travel authorization via the secure ESTA Web site at https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov.

U.S.-VISIT U.S.-VISIT currently applies to all visitors (with limited exemptions) entering the United States. This includes visitors traveling

under the Visa Waiver Program. Visitors are photographed and fingerprinted upon arrival. For more information go to www.dhs.gov/us-visit.

Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) The Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) requires all persons traveling by air between the United States and Canada, Mexico, Bermuda, and the Caribbean region to present a passport or other valid travel document to enter or re-enter the United States. For more information, go to travel. state.gov/travel/cbpmc/cbpmc_2223.html.
