IRS Enforcement on Offshore Accounts is Increasing
The IRS has made offshore tax compliance a top enforcement priority, and U.S. taxpayers with foreign financial accounts face increasing scrutiny. Under the Foreign Bank Account Report (FBAR) rules, any U.S. person with a financial interest in—or signature authority over—foreign financial accounts with an aggregate value exceeding $10,000 at any point during the year must:
- Report any income derived from those accounts on U.S. tax returns
- Disclose those accounts to the IRS
Disclose those accounts to the IRS
Failure to file an FBAR (FinCEN Form 114) or accurately report foreign account income can result in severe civil and criminal penalties, including substantial fines, asset forfeiture, and even prison time in cases of willful noncompliance.
At Parent & Parent | IRSMedic, we help clients identify compliance gaps, mitigate penalties, and develop legal strategies to resolve offshore tax issues while protecting their financial interests and minimizing exposure to criminal tax enforcement.

What You Need to Know About IRS Offshore Investigations
The IRS has developed advanced systems to detect unreported offshore assets, including data-sharing agreements with foreign financial institutions under FATCA (Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act). As a result, individuals with unreported foreign accounts are increasingly being targeted for audits, civil enforcement, and criminal tax investigations.
Potential Penalties for Offshore Tax Non-Compliance
- Civil penalties of up to 50% of the account balance per year for willful non-filing.
- Criminal penalties including fines up to $500,000 and imprisonment for up to 10 years.
- Additional tax penalties, interest, and potential forfeiture of offshore assets.
