It is imperative to conduct U.S. overseas tax inspections (Alberta Times) American lawyer Jay Krause Krause said on the 25th that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will publish the first draft of the implementation details of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) before the end of December, and it is expected to be finalized by the end of next year. It is imperative for the U.S. government to conduct overseas tax inspections. Central News Agency reported that Krausi is licensed to practice law in the United States and is currently the head of the Asian wealth planning department of Withers Law Firm. He is based in Hong Kong. This time he went to Taiwan to participate in forums of the European Chamber of Commerce and the Federation of Finance and delivered a special speech on the relevant laws and regulations of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act. In an interview with Central News Agency on the 25th, Clausi pointed out that the US FATCA requires all non-US financial institutions with "US-source income" to report the income information of customers with US citizens, green cards and resident status to the US Internal Revenue Service. He said that FATCA has a legal basis. The Obama administration passed the Hiring and Employment Incentives Act (HIRE) in March 2010. One of the accompanying chapters is FATCA, which regulates overseas financial institutions to cooperate with the US Internal Revenue Service and assist overseas tax inspections. However, the implementation details of FATCA are still under study. According to the schedule released by the IRS, a preliminary draft of FATCA implementation details will be released before the end of December this year. After listening to opinions from all walks of life, it is expected to be finalized before the end of next year. He said that after the implementation details of FATCA are finalized, foreign financial institutions (FFIs) must sign an agreement with the US Internal Revenue Service before the end of June 2013 to assist US overseas tax inspections. He emphasized that according to FATCA, if overseas financial institutions do not cooperate with the US government's overseas tax inspections, they will be regarded as uncooperative financial institutions. Once financial institutions deemed uncooperative in 2014 sell US dollar assets (such as US government bonds, funds, real estate, etc.), they will be fined a high 30% penalty. He said that since the global financial tsunami in 2008, more and more financial institutions have awakened to the question of how to strike a balance between the confidentiality of customer information and tax fairness. Is it necessary to protect the information of tax evaders? He said that more and more people believe that "not paying taxes is a crime." The implementation details of the U.S. FATCA will be released as scheduled before the end of December and are expected to be finalized by the end of next year.
