Yahoo today reported an Associated Press article that the IRS is considering another program for taxpayers to bring assets back to the US and come clean about owing taxes regarding international income. They were extremely successful in getting around 15,000 people back as compliant taxpayers when they offered the program. The only catches are that the taxpayer must come forward themselves prior to being caught and they must have earned the money legally. This is typically offered to taxpayers who meet those conditions although only about 100 a year it applies to because they would then need to pay a substantial amount in interest and penalties as well as the tax the taxpayers do not come forward since the property - money they have over seas is less than the total of the interest and penalties but the IRS seeks this arrangement to get them back on the tax rolls and in compliance in future years.
