U.S. Citizens With Financial Interests Abroad MUST Remember The 30th June 2013 FBAR Deadline Or… You could be facing a $10,000 fine for each unreported foreign financial account!
U.S. Citizens With Financial Interests Abroad MUST Remember The 30th June 2013 FBAR Deadline
According to the U.S. Department of Treasury:
The deadline is less than two weeks away. If you had US$10,000 or more in any non-U.S. bank account(s) at any point during 2012, you are required to complete the Form TD F 90-22.1, Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts (FBAR). That applies even if you transferred money to your a foreign bank account to buy a car, say, and the account broke the threshold for but a single day.
You can “enjoy” a truly depressing and of course bloody confusing FBAR video from KPMG:

And your fine for failure to report?
A $10,000 fine for each unreported foreign financial account!
