FBAR Filing 2024
Each year, Taxpayers considered U.S. persons for tax purposes must report their foreign accounts, assets, and investments on various international information reporting forms to the IRS and FinCEN. While there are many different types of IRS foreign tax forms that a Taxpayer may have to file, the FBAR (Foreign Bank and Financial Account Form) is the form that most Taxpayers are aware of. The FBAR is required to be filed in any year that the Taxpayer has an annual aggregate total that exceeds $10,000 for all their foreign accounts combined on any given day of the year. When Taxpayers fail to file the FBAR form, they may become subject to fines and penalties, although the Internal Revenue Service has developed various offshore amnesty programs to help taxpayers safely get into compliance. While there are many different aspects to foreign account reporting, let’s hone in on some of the more important requirements for FBAR filing.
