Certification

I am providing amended income tax returns, including all required information returns, for each of the most recent 3 years for which the U.S. tax return due date (or properly applied for extended due date) has passed. I previously filed original tax returns for these years. The tax and interest I owe for each year are as follows

I failed to report income from one or more foreign financial assets during the above period.

I meet all the eligibility requirements for the Streamlined Domestic Offshore procedures.

If I failed to timely file correct and complete FBARs for any of the last 6 years, I have now electronically filed those FBARs.

During each year in either my 3-year covered tax return period or my 6-year covered FBAR period, my foreign financial assets subject to the 5% miscellaneous offshore penalty were as follows

Miscellaneous Offshore Penalty

Total Payment

Note: Your payment should equal the total tax and interest due for all three years, plus the miscellaneous offshore penalty. You may receive a balance due notice or a refund if the tax, interest, or penalty is not calculated correctly.

In consideration of the Internal Revenue Service’s agreement not to assert other penalties with respect to my failure to report foreign financial assets as required on FBARs or Forms 8938 or my failure to report income from foreign financial assets, I consent to the immediate assessment and collection of a Title 26 miscellaneous offshore penalty for the most recent of the three tax years for which I am providing amended income tax returns. I waive all defenses against and restrictions on the assessment and collection of the miscellaneous offshore penalty, including any defense based on the expiration of the period of limitations on assessment or collection. I waive the right to seek a refund or abatement of the miscellaneous offshore penalty.

I agree to retain all records (including, but not limited to, account statements) related to my assets subject to the 5% miscellaneous offshore penalty until six years from the date of this certification. I also agree to retain all records related to my income and assets during the period covered by my amended income tax returns until three years from the date of this certification. Upon request, I agree to provide all such records to the Internal Revenue Service.

My failure to report all income, pay all tax, and submit all required information returns, including FBARs, was due to non-willful conduct. I understand that non-willful conduct is conduct that is due to negligence, inadvertence, or mistake or conduct that is the result of a good faith misunderstanding of the requirements of the law.

I acknowledge the possibility that amended income tax returns I am submitting under the Streamlined Domestic Offshore Procedures may report income for tax years beyond the three-year assessment limitations period under I.R.C. § 6501(a). Other assessment limitations periods in I.R.C. § 6501 may allow the Internal Revenue Service to assess and collect tax. If I seek a refund for any tax or interest paid for the omitted income that I am reporting on my amended income tax returns because I feel that my payments were made beyond the assessment limitations period, I understand that I will forfeit the favorable terms of the Streamlined Procedures.

I recognize that if the Internal Revenue Service receives or discovers evidence of willfulness, fraud, or criminal conduct, it may open an examination or investigation that could lead to civil fraud penalties, FBAR penalties, information return penalties, or even referral to Criminal Investigation.

Note: You must provide specific facts on this form or on a signed attachment explaining your failure to report all income, pay all tax, and submit all required information returns, including FBARs. Any submission that does not contain a narrative statement of facts will be considered incomplete and will not qualify for the streamlined penalty relief.

Provide specific reasons for your failure to report all income, pay all tax, and submit all required information returns, including FBARs. Include the whole story including favorable and unfavorable facts.

For example, explain whether you inherited the account/asset, whether you opened it while residing in a foreign country, or whether you had a business reason to open or use it. And explain your contacts with the account/asset including withdrawals, deposits, and investment/ management decisions. Provide a complete story about your foreign financial account/asset.
