"THE SSS UPDATE"

To inform and educate

Tax Season is over but don't forget the FBAR!

4/17/2014

0 Comments

 
April 15, 2014 passed and everyone hopefully survived! However, the IRS has new rules on Foreign Bank Account Reporting (FBAR). This year the form has changed to Form 114 from TD F 90-22.1. Additional requirements are that the form be e-filed only this year and that it be filed separately and not with your income tax return, as was the case with the old form. 

Per the IRS website, United States persons are required to file an FBAR if they "had a financial interest in or signature authority over at least one financial account located outside of the United States; and if the aggregate value of all foreign financial accounts exceeded $10,000 at any time during the calendar year to be reported."

There are some exceptions and other rules regarding Foreign Bank Account Reporting. If you have questions, be sure to ask your tax advisor and make sure to not forget that deadline!

Please note that every individual tax situation is unique. Before you embark on any specific tax position, it is important to consult your tax adviser. The above isn't and shouldn't be construed as tax or professional advice.
