Basics of Foreign Asset Reporting (2 CE)
U.S. taxpayers with foreign financial interests face a maze of overlapping reporting regimes — FBAR (FinCEN Form 114), FATCA (Form 8938), and information returns for foreign trusts, gifts, and business interests. This course walks practitioners through when each requirement applies, how the thresholds and filing triggers differ, and where clients most commonly fall into noncompliance. It covers penalty structures and the IRS's current options for taxpayers who missed a filing.
-
Foreign Earned Income Exclusion Overview (2 CE)
The foreign earned income exclusion (FEIE) under §911 provides substantial tax benefits for U.S. taxpayers living and working abroad. However, eligibility rules and calculations are complex and often misunderstood. This course provides a practical overview of the FEIE, covering qualification requirements, the bona fide residence and physical presence tests, the mechanics of Form 2555, and the housing exclusion.

Best Practices for Preparing Problem Tax Returns (2 CE)
Not every return is timely filed with perfect information. Practitioners often struggle with missing, unavailable, or incorrect information, or late-filed tax returns – or clients with both! This course reviews both of these situations and how the practitioner can help the client to the best of their ability while maintaining a commitment to accuracy and ethics.
