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.
