Frequently asked questions

Who is eligible for the Streamlined Compliance Package?

The IRS Streamlined Filing Compliance Procedures are designed for U.S. citizens living abroad who unintentionally failed to file U.S. tax returns, FBARs, or other required international information returns. To qualify, your failure to file must have been non-willful, meaning it resulted from a good-faith misunderstanding of your U.S. tax obligations rather than an intentional attempt to avoid them.

If you’re unsure whether you qualify, contact us by email and we’ll help you understand whether the Streamlined Filing Procedures are the right option for your situation.

What is included in the package?

Our Streamlined Compliance Package includes everything required under the IRS Streamlined Filing Compliance Procedures:

– A 20-minute consultation with one of our international tax accountants
– Preparation of three years of U.S. federal tax returns
– Preparation of six years of FBARs
– Preparation of Form 14653 (Certification by U.S. Person Residing Outside the United States)
– Guidance throughout the entire process
– Review of your filings by multiple tax professionals before submission

How does the IRS amnesty program help me avoid penalties?

The IRS Streamlined Filing Compliance Procedures are an amnesty program for eligible taxpayers who unintentionally failed to meet their U.S. tax filing obligations.

Rather than simply filing late tax returns, eligible taxpayers can use the Streamlined Procedures to become compliant while receiving relief from many of the penalties that would normally apply to late-filed tax returns and FBARs. We’ll determine whether the program is appropriate for your circumstances and prepare every required filing on your behalf.

How long will it take to complete my filings?

Once we’ve received all of the information needed to prepare your returns, most Streamlined Compliance Packages are completed within approximately two to three weeks. More complex cases involving foreign businesses, foreign trusts, or additional international reporting requirements may take longer.

Throughout the process, we’ll keep you informed and let you know promptly if we need any additional information.

Why can't I simply file my late tax returns?

Filing late tax returns does not provide the same protection as filing through the IRS Streamlined Filing Compliance Procedures.

The Streamlined program is specifically designed for eligible taxpayers whose failure to file was non-willful. It allows them to catch up on their U.S. tax obligations through the IRS amnesty program while receiving relief from many penalties that could otherwise apply. We’ll help you determine whether the Streamlined Procedures are the right approach for your situation.
