Q1 Who is required to file an FBAR (FinCEN Form 114)?

Any U.S. citizen, resident, or entity that holds a financial interest in or signature authority over foreign financial accounts whose aggregate value exceeded $10,000 at any time during the calendar year must file an FBAR.

Q2 How do I avoid paying taxes twice as a U.S. expat living abroad?

We utilize two primary mechanisms: the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (FEIE), which excludes up to $126,500+ of foreign earned income, and the Foreign Tax Credit (FTC), which provides a dollar-for-dollar credit against your U.S. tax for taxes paid to your host country.

Q3 What if I am behind on filing my foreign disclosure forms?

We assist clients in utilizing the IRS Streamlined Filing Compliance Procedures, which allow qualifying taxpayers who missed foreign disclosures non-willfully to catch up without facing debilitating civil penalties.
