This obligation also applies to those who have never lived in the US, &#8220;second-generation&#8221; individuals born in Israel, and those who previously lived in the US and left. Unfortunately, many US citizens living abroad are unaware of this reporting obligation. Whether they have never filed returns, stopped reporting over the years, or chose to report only partial information\u2014each of these situations is considered non-compliance with US tax laws.<\/p>\n<p>Non-compliance with reporting obligations has numerous consequences. Among other things, it can lead to heavy fines or criminal proceedings by the US tax authorities, prevent or delay the receipt of inheritances, gifts, or the transfer of savings from the US (as Israeli banks often require proof of US tax compliance as a condition for receiving funds), thus leading to stress and unpleasantness in daily life.<\/p>\n<p>For those in such a situation, the US tax authorities have created a special program designed to help them regularize their status: Streamlined Foreign Offshore Procedures. Our team of accountants is well-versed in the details of this program and the nuances of US tax law, having successfully helped hundreds of clients regularize their status in recent years. We have an in-depth understanding of the unique challenges faced by US citizens living outside the US, and know how to navigate the complex and changing regulations and laws\u2014while optimally minimizing their tax liability, avoiding or canceling penalties, and closing criminal proceedings.<br \/>\nAbove all, we aim to provide peace of mind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2025,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"team_members":[],"class_list":["post-6834","service","type-service","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Streamlined Foreign Offshore Procedures - \u05d0\u05d1\u05d5\u05dc\u05e2\u05e4\u05d9\u05d4 \u05e8\u05d5\u05d0\u05d9 \u05d7\u05e9\u05d1\u05d5\u05df<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Every U.S. citizen, regardless of where they live in the world, is required by law to report all of their income and financial assets to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
