IRS Streamlined Filing: Open and Accessible to Every Taxpayer
Penalty-Free Filing Relief, Made Simple
The Offshore Streamlined Procedure is a formal IRS amnesty program created specifically to help Americans living abroad bring their U.S. tax filings up to date without facing penalties or unnecessary scrutiny. It’s one of the most effective paths to full compliance for expats who unintentionally fell behind. Our team of experienced U.S. CPAs has refined and optimized this process, offering a seamless online experience that is secure, efficient, and accessible from anywhere in the world.
Qualification is Simple
To qualify, you must:
File the last 3 years of delinquent federal tax returns
File the last 6 years of FBARs (if required)
Settle any U.S. tax owing, typically reduced or eliminated through the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion or Foreign Tax Credit
Confirm your non-filing was non-willful through the required certification statement
Together, these steps offer a clear path back into full compliance — without penalties and with minimal IRS scrutiny.
Clear and Simple Fee Structure
Our standard IRS Streamlined Procedure package is priced at $1,500 and includes all three required federal tax returns. If FBAR filings are needed—applicable when foreign account balances exceeded $10,000 at any point in the last six years—those are included as well. Our flat-fee structure covers up to six FBARs, ensuring full compliance without any surprise add-ons.
Could the IRS Detect My Non-Filing?
Since the enactment of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) in 2010, over 300,000 foreign financial institutions have been reporting information about their U.S. account holders; including account balances and contact details directly to the IRS. This has given the IRS an unprecedented global reach.
By catching up through the Streamlined Procedure, U.S. expats can avoid IRS penalties and retroactively claim available exemptions and exclusions, often reducing their U.S. tax liability to zero.
