Two IRS heavyweights will discuss the latest tax enforcement initiatives aimed at U.S. taxpayers with offshore accounts at next month’s OffshoreAlert Conference in Miami Beach.
They are Chief of IRS Criminal Investigation Don Fort and Commissioner of Large Business and International Douglas O’Donnell.
In a session entitled ‘What’s Next in Offshore Tax Enforcement?‘, they will talk about the latest trends and challenges regarding offshore tax enforcement.
This will include how the IRS uses millions of records and data that it obtained under its Swiss Bank Program and what opportunities still exist for taxpayers to reconcile offshore tax issues without going to jail.
Don Fort will also participate in a second session on offshore tax enforcement that will look at the new and innovative Joint Chiefs of Global Tax Enforcement that was established last year by the U.S., U.K., Canada, Australia, and the Netherlands to share information and work joint investigations.
He will be joined on stage by Bert Langerak, Chief of Criminal Investigation at the Dutch Tax Authority’s investigative department FIOD, for a session entitled ‘J5: Tearing Down International Barriers‘.
‘What’s Next in Offshore Tax Enforcement?’ and ‘J5: Tearing Down International Barriers‘ are two of more than 20 sessions taking place at next month’s OffshoreAlert Conference in Miami Beach, Fl. The conference will cover a broad range of topics concerning high-value international finance that are aimed at investigators, providers, and buyers of products and services.
