FBAR Webinar

FBAR → Foreign Reporting Gone Wrong

Many taxpayers don’t realize they have foreign reporting obligations until a bank asks questions, a CPA flags it late, or they receive an IRS/FinCEN notice. This webinar breaks down the most common FBAR mistakes and shows you the right way to think about fixing past noncompliance.

Know when FBAR applies: the $10,000 aggregate rule, “maximum value,” and accounts people forget to include.

Understand penalties: what drives non-willful vs willful exposure and what creates “bad facts.”

Fix it the right way: what to gather, what to avoid, and how professionals evaluate the safest compliance path.

Important: Educational webinar only (not tax/legal advice). If you missed filings, your facts matter—don’t rush into a “quick fix” without understanding the rules.

Replay Included: Register even if you can’t attend live. We’ll email the recording and a Foreign Reporting Intake Checklist.
