Your Appeal Rights
The IRS has an administrative appeals process that works formally with taxpayers to try to settle tax disputes in an effort to avoid formal court hearings.
The role of Appeals function at the IRS is to make an independent review of a tax dispute and to consider the positions taken by both the taxpayer and the Service. The Appeals function strives to resolve tax disputes in a fair way and remain impartial to both parties and most of the time they do.
The IRS will send you a report and/or letter that will explain the proposed adjustments or proposed or taken collection action. The letter also tells you of your right to request a conference with an Appeals or Settlement Officer, as well as how to make your request for a conference.
IRS Appeals conferences are informal meetings. You may represent yourself or have an attorney, accountant, or an individual enrolled to practice before the IRS, represent you. If you do not reach agreement with the Appeals or Settlement Officer, or you do not wish to appeal within the IRS, you may appeal certain actions through the courts.

We have over 60 years of direct work experience at the IRS in the local, district and regional offices of the IRS. We taught Tax Law at the IRS.
We true tax experts! We have over 206 years of total tax experience.
Many of the tax issues that arise with Expatriates are the non filing of tax returns and the filing of form 8854.
The following deals with the two major tax issues that the IRS is currently addressing.
If you have not filed a tax return.
Among the various new tax requirements contained in IRC 877 and 877A, individuals that renounced their U.S. citizenship or terminated their long-term resident status for tax purposes after June 3, 2004 are required to certify to the IRS that they have satisfied all federal tax requirements for the 5 years prior to expatriation. This is a must to file. The IRS will pursue non filers via the new tax software that is being updated in their system. IRS is building special groups within the Service to pursue Expats simply because of the large revenues that are brought in from Expats.
If all federal tax requirements have not been satisfied for the 5 years prior to expatriation, even if the individual does not meet the monetary thresholds in IRC 877 or 877A, the individual will be subject to the IRC 877 and 877A expatriation tax provisions.
Call our Expat Lawyers, Attorneys and Former IRS agents to go over you case for no cost.
Individual taxpayers that have expatriated should file all tax returns that are due, regardless of whether or not full payment can be made with the return. It is most important to file even though you do not have the money. IRS cannot come after you criminally if you file.
Depending on a taxpayers individual’s circumstances, a taxpayer filing late may qualify for a payment plan. Many taxpayers may also qualify for a full abatement of penalties if reasonable cause exists. Expat Lawyers who are skilled in tax law can many times remove all penalties and interest. It is important you find qualified Expat Lawyers and Attorneys who have IRS tax experience.
Payment Plans
You can qualify for a payment plan if you cannot pay the tax in full. All payment plans require continued compliance with all filing and payment responsibilities after the plan is approved.
IRS to send notices to Expats
IRS is starting to send tax notices to expatriates that have not complied with the Form 8854 requirements, including the imposition of the $10,000 penalty where appropriate. The IRS collected over $4.4 billion dollars in the last 3 years and it will continue to work and develop tax systems to aggressively collect monies from Expats.
We can file all your back tax returns, get penalties and interest abated should you qualify and work out a tax settlement.

Latest News for US Citizens Overseas with Dual Citizenship.
The Internal Revenue Service announced a plan to help U.S. citizens residing overseas, including dual citizens, catch up with tax filing obligations and provide assistance for people with foreign retirement plan issues.
The IRS will provide a new option to help some U.S. citizens and others residing abroad who haven’t been filing tax returns and provide them a chance to catch up with their tax filing obligations if they owe little or no back taxes.
The New Tax Procedure
Will go into effect on Sept. 1, 2012. The IRS is aware that some U.S. taxpayers living abroad have failed to timely file U.S. federal income tax returns or Reports of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts .
Some taxpayers have recently become aware of their filing requirements and want to comply with the law. Many have made innocent mistakes.
The IRS offered the new procedures that will allow taxpayers who are low compliance risks to get current with their tax requirements without facing penalties or additional enforcement action.
Taxpayers generally will have simple tax returns and owe $1,500 or less in tax for any of the covered years.
Taxpayers using the new procedures will be required to file delinquent tax returns along with appropriate related information returns for the past three years, and to file delinquent FBARs for the past six years.
Submissions from taxpayers that present higher compliance risk will be subject to a more thorough review and potentially subject to an audit, which could cover more than three tax years.
