FBAR Filings – Free Tax Advice – Tax Attorneys, Lawyers – Former IRS
There are many questions regarding the filing of FBAR and making Voluntary Disclosures to the IRS.
There are also various opinions on how this should be done.
It is always best to speak directly to a tax attorney, tax lawyer or Former IRS Agent to go over all your tax options regarding FBAR and Voluntary Disclosure.
We are a professional tax firm specializing in FBAR and ExPat cases.
These are two of the most common questions asked:
1. Why should I make a voluntary disclosure?
Taxpayers with undisclosed foreign accounts or entities should make a voluntary disclosure because it enables them to become compliant, avoid substantial civil penalties and generally eliminate the risk of criminal prosecution.
Making these voluntary disclosure also provides the opportunity to calculate, with a reasonable degree of certainty, the total cost of resolving all offshore tax issues.
Taxpayers who do not submit a voluntary disclosure run the risk of detection by the IRS and the imposition of substantial penalties, including the fraud penalty and foreign information return penalties, and an increased risk of criminal prosecution.
The IRS along with different countries are putting in tax treaties to deal with the problem of unreported FBAR based on bank account information they are currently receiving.
Due to recent funding the IRS is ramping up CADE 2, the new IRS computer system that will help full compliance.
It is in the best interest to all taxpayers to find the IRS before they find you.
2. What is the IRS’s Voluntary Disclosure Practice?
The Voluntary Disclosure Practice is a longstanding practice of IRS Criminal Investigation of taking timely, accurate, and complete voluntary disclosures into account in deciding whether to recommend to the Department of Justice that a taxpayer be criminally prosecuted.
It enables non compliant taxpayers to resolve their tax liabilities and minimize their chances of criminal prosecution. When a taxpayer truthfully, timely, and completely complies with all provisions of the voluntary disclosure practice, the IRS will not recommend criminal prosecution to the Department of Justice.
The general rule of thumb, file first and beat criminal prosecution.

IRS Help – Ft.Lauderdale, Miami, Palm Beach – Former IRS, Attorneys, CPA’s – IRS Tax Experts
by Fresh Start Tax | Jun 30, 2012 | IRS Tax Problem, Representation, Tax Help, Tax Lawyer
IRS has a SNAFU in there CADE computer system that is causing many problems and hoards of taxpayers are filing complaints because of Wrongful Federal Tax Lien activity.
If you are having a tax problem and need tax relief call for tax help today from tax attorneys, tax lawyers and Former IRS agents.
1-866-700-1040. Do not be bullied any more, fight back.
Some will file Federal Lawsuits and WIN.
IRS files some 980,000 Federal Tax Liens each year. These Federal Tax Liens wipes out and destroys the financial life of these people. Many of these Federal Tax Liens never should have been filed in the first place.
The credit life of these taxpayers are destroyed for years to come because of the Federal Tax Lien filing.
The Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) has recently rebuked the IRS in a report recently issued.
The Report on Wrongful Federal Tax Liens
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) mails federal tax lien notices to taxpayers in a timely manner as required by law most of the time.
However, it does not always follow its own regulations for notifying taxpayer representatives and processing undelivered lien notices, according to a report released publicly today by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA).
TIGTA is required by law to determine annually whether the federal tax lien notices issued by the IRS comply with the legal guidelines in Internal Revenue Code Section 6320 and related guidance in the Federal Tax Liens Handbook.
The TIGTA auditors reviewed a statistically valid sample of 105 Notices of Federal Tax Lien (NFTL) filed for the 12-month period ending June 30, and determined that the IRS mailed taxpayers the federal tax lien notices in a timely manner as required.
However, the IRS did not always follow its own regulations for notifying representatives of the filing of NFTLs.
IRS Regulations.
The IRS Regulations require that taxpayer representatives be given copies of all correspondence issued to taxpayers.
TIGTA estimated that 43,817 taxpayers may have been adversely affected because the IRS did not follow requirements to notify the taxpayers’ representatives of the taxpayers’ rights related to liens.
Additionally, when an initial federal tax lien notice is returned undelivered and a different address is available for the taxpayer, the IRS does not always meet its statutory requirement to send the lien notice to the taxpayer’s last known address.
From a judgmental sample of 250 undelivered lien notices, TIGTA identified four cases for which a new federal tax lien notice should have been sent to the taxpayer’s updated address because IRS systems reflected that the address was updated prior to the NFTL preparation.
These cases could involve legal violations because the IRS did not meet its statutory requirement to send lien notices to the taxpayer’s last known address.
The Report and the Violations by the IRS.
“After filing Notices of Federal Tax Lien, the IRS must notify the affected taxpayers in writing, at their last known address, within five business days of the lien filings,” said J. Russell George, Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration. “However, as noted in previous audits, the IRS did not always follow its own internal guidelines for notifying taxpayer representatives of the filing of the NFTL. Therefore, the rights of some taxpayers may have been violated when the IRS did not notify their representatives of lien filings.”
In TIGTA’s Fiscal Year 2009 lien notice audit, TIGTA recommended that the IRS enhance its systems to ensure taxpayer representatives timely received lien notices. However, the IRS corrective action has not been implemented yet.
In the report released publicly , TIGTA recommended that the IRS improve the controls and oversight for the processing of undelivered lien notices to ensure they are researched timely, and ensure the use of undelivered lien notice mail status codes is consistent in the procedures for the Automated Collection System and the Collection Field function.
IRS Changes.
The IRS agreed with TIGTA’s recommendations and plans to:
1) make changes to the respective internal guidelines to improve documentation and support the timely resolution of undeliverable notices, and
2) evaluate the use of mail status codes against resource demands to determine if implementation is feasible.

With the aggressive position of the IRS on FBAR cases and the the new federal funding given to the IRS, the Service is going to ramp up a full force major attack on all FBAR cases.
The IRS has been training new Revenue Agents to have become ROBO-FBAR AGENTS to scare the taxpayers into submission and full tax compliance.
It has worked so far.
The commissioner of the IRS announced the IRS has collected over $5 Billion and much more is expected to come. Fear is a great motivator.
With this said, if currently you have professional tax needs in this area call us today for a free tax consult.
Speak directly with Board Certified Tax Attorneys, Tax Lawyers, CPAs and Former IRS Agents who are tax experts in the field of FBAR tax settlements, tax negotiations. We can answer all your questions with a no cost first consult.
What is new with FBAR
The standard penalty was recently increased from 25 percent to 27.5 percent.
In December 2011 the IRS issued FS-2011 that appeared to soften their attitude and provided that penalties will not be imposed in all cases. Check with us and see if you qualify for this.
Taxpayer (s) that remain out of compliance will likely eventually show up on the IRS radar screen. With IRS cutting more deals with countries and with new tax treaties being developed with new countries every day, FBAR will become a daily topic within the IRS because of the sheer volume of revenue it brings in.
New Revenue Agents Groups within the IRS have been formed with many Agents currently being trained simply to work these FBAR cases.
It should also be known these are highly skilled agents working these case.
If a taxpayer is notified the IRS is seeking FBAR info, it is vitally important they seek out legal representation.
Many times the IRS will play the criminal card.
On large dollar cases, Agents have the ability to make a criminal referrals to CI if the Agent feels that tax fraud is involved.
The IRS post lists on their website of all their current convictions.
Innocent Taxpayers with Compliance Problems
Many of our clients/taxpayers come from places all over the world.
Most do not face exposure to criminal tax issues.
Criminal tax problems typically involve intentional actions to hide the ownership of assets and income such as offshore trusts, pure and out right fraud and shell- type companies.
Most, about 95 % of our clients have simply failed to file FBARs, some have not filed tax returns for many years and these taxpayers do not owe any U.S. tax due to foreign tax credits as they pay higher rate foreign tax. Most are simply unaware or uninformed.
Reasonable cause and relief from penalties
There are a array of reasons the the IRS abates penalties and interest. There is a long list found on our website.
We usually go over the fact patterns of each individual case and develop a tax strategy for a successful abatement of penalties and interest.
On staff is a Former IRS Appeals Agent who over his 35 year career at IRS has probably worked more Abatement case than any I know.He exclusively works our abatement cases.
We handle all FBAR Cases, Tax Settlements, Negotiations. We can file all unfiled tax returns.
We are compromised of Tax Attorneys, Tax Lawyers, CPA’s and Former IRS Agents
We are true FBAR Tax Experts, call us today. 1-866-7001-040
Thank you.
