Failure to file out Form 8938 results in paying a penalty of $10,000 per year. This penalty can be up to $50,000 for not filing out the form even after receiving the notification from the IRS.
Well, it totally depends on your case type. In many scenarios, the process is straightforward. For example, if you have foreign assets only from foreign stocks and bank accounts, then your reporting requirement will be very minimal, and the details will be easy to gather.
The IRS requires the reporting of several types of financial assets annually. It includes investment accounts, foreign bank accounts, foreign life insurance, pension received from a foreign company, mutual funds, ownership in foreign trusts, partnerships, or companies, ownership of personal retirement accounts such as superannuation funds or ISAs, and other financial accounts.
The IRS wants you to do so because it has found errors in the tax rates of U.S. taxpayers with foreign income and assets when they file their returns. By asking them to mention their foreign ownership, the IRS gets the information of the taxpayers who are under-reporting their taxable income in the country.
The IRS has several tools and data that help it identify U.S. taxpayers who have not disclosed their complete assets and investments from overseas. So, if you haven't reported all your foreign income and assets, the IRS will still find out about it using its tools and data.
