Have Foreign Investments, Businesses, or Trusts?

Some international tax situations require additional specialized reporting.

Please request a customized quote if your circumstances include:

  • Foreign corporations
  • Foreign partnerships
  • Foreign trusts
  • PFICs or foreign mutual funds
  • Complex foreign pensions
  • Forms 3520 or 3520-A
  • Forms 5471 or 8865
  • Form 8621
  • Multiple foreign businesses or entities
  • Willfulness concerns
  • IRS examinations or investigations

Complex International Situation? Let's Review It First.

New York Voluntary Disclosure

Unfiled or Undisclosed New York Taxes?

Consider Your Options Before Taking Action.

Eligible taxpayers who owe back taxes and haven't filed the related returns may be able to use the New York State Voluntary Disclosure and Compliance Program. Under the program, eligible taxpayers can avoid monetary penalties and possible criminal charges by disclosing what they owe, paying the taxes, and agreeing to comply going forward. 

Eligibility matters. New York states, among other requirements, that an applicant cannot currently be under audit for the tax type and years being disclosed or have received a bill for the past-due taxes being disclosed. 

New York Voluntary Disclosure

Starting at $1,995

Includes:

✓ Initial eligibility assessment
✓ Review of delinquent periods
✓ Voluntary disclosure strategy
✓ Preparation of the voluntary disclosure application
✓ Limited look-back evaluation, when applicable
✓ CPA representation through the disclosure process
✓ Coordination of required filings

Tax-return preparation and complex additional filings are quoted separately.

Don't File Blindly. Understand Your Options First.

New York City Voluntary Disclosure

Businesses with unresolved New York City tax obligations may also have options.

New York City's Voluntary Disclosure and Compliance Program may be available to qualifying taxpayers who owe NYC taxes but haven't filed the related returns. NYC states that acceptance results in delinquency-related penalties being waived and may provide a limited look-back period.

Timing can be important. NYC states that taxpayers already contacted by the Department of Finance concerning the taxes due are not eligible for its program.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I still have to file a U.S. tax return if I live overseas?

Living outside the United States does not by itself eliminate all U.S. tax filing obligations. Your filing requirements depend on your circumstances.

I'm several years behind. Can RCPA Solutions PLLC help?

Yes.

We help taxpayers evaluate delinquent federal income tax returns, foreign account reporting, international information reporting, and potential compliance options.

The appropriate strategy depends on what was missed, why it was missed, your individual circumstances, and whether a tax authority has already contacted you.

I didn't know I had to file FBARs. What should I do?

Don't panic and don't assume that simply filing several old forms is automatically the appropriate solution.

The first step is determining what reporting requirements applied and which compliance approach fits your particular circumstances.

Do I automatically qualify for Streamlined Filing?

No.

The IRS Streamlined Filing Compliance Procedures have specific eligibility requirements. A taxpayer's individual facts should be reviewed before deciding to proceed.

What if I already received an IRS notice?

Contact us and provide a copy of the notice.

The existence of an IRS examination or other enforcement activity can affect which compliance options are available, so your circumstances should be reviewed before taking corrective action.

What if I have a foreign company, trust, or investments?

Additional international forms may be required. Those filings are not included in the standard fixed-fee packages unless expressly stated.

We'll identify applicable additional work and provide pricing before proceeding.

Are taxes, penalties, and interest included in the package price?

No.

The listed prices represent RCPA Solutions PLLC's professional fees for the services expressly included in each package.

Taxes, government penalties, interest, additional forms, state/local returns, and services outside the stated scope are separate.

Can you work with me if I live outside the United States?

Yes.

Our secure remote process allows RCPA Solutions PLLC to serve U.S. expat tax clients regardless of where they currently reside, subject to the nature and scope of the engagement.

Not Sure Which Service You Need?

That's Exactly Where We Can Start.

You don't need to diagnose your own international tax issue.

We'll help you identify the potential compliance issues, determine what may need to be filed, and evaluate which service is appropriate for your circumstances.

1 year of expat tax preparation

3 years of catch-up filings
