Event Synopsis:
For the past years, offshore compliance has remained the top priority of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as shown by the numerous amnesty programs created to help taxpayers with their compliance, hence, avoiding unwanted legal and financial burdens arising from any potential violation. The Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program (OVDP), one of the IRS' several amnesty programs, provides taxpayers with the option to resolve previous omissions, errors, and non-compliance issues.
