Just when I was planning on publishing my post on foreign free lance income and tax consequences- the big news headline of 2017 dropped! Today special prosecutor, Robert Mueller brought charges against Manafort & Gates for money laundering and foreign bank accounts among any other things. While those fireworks continue and you think that you may not be in the same league as them, let me assure you that many U.S. citizens who live abroad and have freelance income do not understand its tax implications.

ITIN, Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, is a 9 digit number that is issued by the IRS that allows individuals who are not eligible for or who don’t have a social security number to file a U.S. tax return. Before such individuals can file their U.S. tax return though, they need to apply for an ITIN.

It’s important to note though that ITINs don’t qualify their holders to work in the U.S. or claim U.S. Social Security benefits; they are simply used to file U.S. taxes. Read More

This is particularly true for expats – the tax plan gives little insight into whether changes will be sought by the administration that specifically address U.S. expat concerns.

Yesterday, we started this blog post to hopefully encourage those with U.S. tax issues to consider whether they can deal with minor/unintentional FBAR violations as a “stand alone single problem”. There may be no need to escalate and expand one single problem into a multi-dimensional full blown tax problem that may end up with unintended and unanticipated costly professional fees as well as undue time spent! Read on and learn why. Keeping a calm head is most important, even if it is most difficult to do in the face of the scary situation of not being in compliance with the U.S. tax and regulatory regime.
