Act 60 Shield

Strengthen Your FBAR Compliance and Prepare for Audit Defense

For Act 60 decree holders who take compliance seriously, FBAR reporting is a critical line of defense. Our service is built to be your shield, providing an authoritative review designed to fortify your filing position and prepare you for the heightened scrutiny of initiatives like IRS Campaign 685.

Strengthen Your FBAR Compliance and Prepare for Audit Defense

FBAR Compliance: Your First Line of Defense

Under Act 60, your financial affairs are under a microscope. The IRS and FinCEN expect flawless compliance, and the Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts (FBAR) is a major focus. Failing to file correctly can trigger audits and endanger your decree. Act 60 Shield is designed for decree holders who understand these stakes. We provide a protective overview of your FBAR obligations, ensuring your filings are robust and defensible. This is not just about checking a box; it's about building a fortress of compliance around your assets, grounded in the Bank Secrecy Act and its stringent requirements.

Beyond the Basics: Preparing for IRS Scrutiny

The IRS is actively targeting offshore tax non-compliance through efforts like Campaign 685. For Act 60 beneficiaries, this means an FBAR mistake could be interpreted as a red flag, inviting a broader audit. Our review is built with this reality in mind. We go beyond a simple threshold check to analyze the nuances of your foreign account structure, looking for potential issues that could attract unwanted attention. While traditional CPA firms can charge upwards of $25,000 for this level of deep review, our focused approach provides a powerful layer of protection, helping you stay ahead of potential challenges.

Willful vs. Non-Willful: A Critical Distinction in Your Defense

The penalties for FBAR non-compliance hinge on intent. A non-willful error carries a significant penalty, but a willful failure to file can lead to devastating financial consequences, including penalties up to 50% of your foreign account balances. A strong defense rests on demonstrating a clear history of compliance and good faith. Act 60 Shield helps you build this record. Our authoritative review process documents your proactive efforts to comply, creating a powerful narrative that can be used to argue against findings of willfulness in the event of an audit. This documentation is a critical asset in protecting your wealth and your Act 60 status.
