FBAR filing
Accounts held with Bank Hapoalim, Bank Leumi, or Mizrahi Tefahot or other foreign institutions may be reportable once your foreign accounts exceed $10,000 in total at any time in the year. We prepare current and prior-year FinCEN Form 114 filings as applicable.
FATCA reporting
Our FATCA service prepares Form 8938 when applicable and coordinates the information with your Form 1040, FBAR, foreign investment accounts, and other specified financial assets.
PFIC filing
Many Israeli and other non-US mutual funds, ETFs, or pooled investment accounts may be treated as PFICs, depending on circumstances. We analyze each holding and prepare Form 8621 as required.
Nonresident tax return
TFX prepares Form 1040-NR for eligible non-US citizens in Israel with US-source income or another US nonresident filing requirement. This service is separate from US expat tax return preparation for US citizens and green card holders.
