Good to Know

What most Americans abroad don’t know about their taxes

This is not about fear. It is about clarity. Knowing these puts you ahead.

You Still File, But You Probably Won’t Owe

Most Americans abroad are still required to file a U.S. tax return, but that does not mean you owe anything. Most expats qualify for exclusions and credits that eliminate the bill entirely. The key is knowing which ones apply to your situation.

OWED

The FBAR

If your foreign bank accounts total more than $10,000 at any point during the year, you are required to file a separate report called an FBAR, completely separate from your tax return. Most people have never heard of it. It is a straightforward filing once you know it exists.

THRESHOLD

Two Strategies, One Right Answer

Most expats qualify for both the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion and the Foreign Tax Credit, but they work differently and cannot always be combined. Choosing the right one for your situation can save thousands. It is one of the most common things we help people sort out.

You Found Out Too Late. It’s Not Too Late.

Many Americans abroad go years without filing, not out of intent, but because nobody told them they had to. The IRS has a formal procedure designed specifically for this situation. If you come forward before the IRS contacts you, catching up is far more manageable than most people fear. This is one of the most common things we help with, and there is a real path through it.

A credential most tax firms don’t have.

A Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) on your return means someone who knows what the IRS looks for, what irregularities look like, and how to protect you. Most expat tax services don’t have one.
