Characteristics of FBAR voluntary disclosures

Table of Contents

    Regardless of the underlying reasons for the establishment of the foreign account, most of FBAR voluntary disclosures made to date have a number of common characteristics:

    1. A failure to report income earned on the foreign accounts.
    2. A failure to disclose the existence of the foreign account on the individual’s U.S. tax return – there is a place to check a box answering the question whether the taxpayer has signature authority or a financial interest in a foreign account, and if so, to list the names of the countries where the account is held.
    3. A failure to file annual FBAR forms disclosing he existence of the foreign account.
    4. Potentially, a failure to file additional IRS forms regarding a taxpayer’s relationship to a foreign trust or foreign corporation, or the taxpayer’s receipt of funds from foreign sources, including gifts and bequests.

    Contact my office to schedule a reduced rate initial consultation to discuss your FBAR and voluntary disclosure concerns and how I can be of assistance. When you call, you will speak directly to me, not a paralegal or assistant, to get the experienced answers you need.
