The Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program

The Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program is offered to those taxpayers with undisclosed offshore accounts or assets.
 
Pre-Clearance:
Options – IRS suggests that taxpayers or representatives may fax to the IRS Criminal Investigation Lead Development Center at (267) 941-1115 the taxpayers’ name, date of birth, social security number and address.
However, I would never recommend the IRS suggestion without representation.
IRS Criminal Investigation will then notify taxpayers or their representatives via fax whether or not they have been cleared to make a voluntary disclosure using the Offshore Voluntary Disclosures Letter.
Taxpayers or representatives with questions regarding the pre-clearance can call (267) 941-1607 or contact their nearest Criminal Investigation Office.
Note: Pre-clearance does not guarantee a taxpayer acceptance into the Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program.
 
Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Letter
 
If the taxpayer chooses to submit a pre-clearance request, after the taxpayer receives a pre-clearance notification, the taxpayer will have 30 days from receipt of the fax notification to complete the Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Letter and attachment (under documents).
If the taxpayer chooses to bypass the pre-clearance process, the taxpayer must mail the Offshore Voluntary Disclosures Letter to the following address:
 
Internal Revenue Service
Criminal Investigation
ATTN: Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Coordinator
Philadelphia Lead Development Center
1-D04-100
2970 Market Street
Philadelphia, PA 19104
 
The IRS will review the offshore Voluntary Disclosures Letters and notify the taxpayer or representative by mail whether the voluntary disclosure has been preliminarily accepted or declined.

Once the voluntary disclosure has been preliminarily accepted, the taxpayer should send the full voluntary disclosure package to:
