For U.S. taxpayers who live in Maryland and have funds stored in offshore accounts, federal tax law compliance involves more than simply filing your annual income tax returns. Among various other requirements, ownership of offshore accounts triggers a requirement to comply with the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA). Failure to comply with FATCA can have serious consequences; and, in order to avoid substantial tax penalties, U.S. taxpayers who have offshore accounts need to ensure FATCA compliance with the help of an experienced Maryland offshore tax attorney.
