The OVDP is available to taxpayers who face potential criminal liabilities and/or substantial civil penalties due to a wilful failure to report foreign financial assets and pay all tax due in respect of those assets. Under OVDP, taxpayers are protected from criminal liability and pay a fixed penalty.
As a result of FATCA and various intergovernmental agreements, the IRS have been able to obtain information on undeclared offshore accounts, which could be used to identify those individuals who remain non-compliant.
For taxpayers whose failure to comply is non-wilful, the IRS have confirmed the following disclosure options are still available:
It is crucial that wilful non-filers take advantage of the OVDP immediately in order to avoid criminal penalties under existing law. There are 6 months remaining for a complete submission under the OVDP.
