Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Initiative / Tax Amends - Part II

By 'go after', i mean IRS keeps track of the accounts for future audits or violations. My attorney says traditional VD has the same auditing chnaces as that of OVDI. So thereis not much of any advantage with OVDI as far as audit is concerned. It is just a different program with different conditions ...

Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Initiative or Tax Amends

I talked to him if there is any advantage following OVDI for my case. He said there is none, so he doesn't think gold account will be excluded. Only advantage is 0% CI against less than 3% CI with traditional VD with reduced penalties. He is in favour of T-VD, as he doesn't see anything i did come ...

Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Initiative or Tax Amends

Is it necessary to get a pre-clearance. One of the CPA's i talked, she told it is not necessary and we can file directly.
