Expatriate Tax Returns
Complex Expatriate Tax Returns Is Our Specialty
Many firms provide expatriate tax returns preparation services for American citizens living abroad – but as you may have found already, when you ask them to prepare Form 8938, FBAR, Form 5471, Form 8621 or sometimes even Form 1116 they will not take you on as a client and even if they do, they are not as fully versed in the intricacies and nuances of these forms to minimize your tax liability. Heck, they won’t even attempt to minimize FBAR penalties or help you file late ones – but we will because we have successfully helped many expats in similar situations.
Tax Samaritan is different. We are truly a boutique tax firm. We are here to service the most complicated U.S. expatriate tax returns for Americans living abroad. We enjoy the complex tax returns and solving your tax problems.

We imagine you are not here to learn how to prepare these forms, but rather educate yourself so that you have a basic understanding of your filing requirements so that you can select the right tax professional and work on enjoying your life rather than dealing with cumbersome US tax regulations:
