FBAR intake that captures unfiled years and account thresholds up
Every FBAR and offshore disclosure enquiry is asked whether they're a U.S. person, whether their non-U.S. accounts ever crossed $10,000, and whether they've already heard from the IRS, before you spend consultation time on a matter you can't take. Prior FBAR filings, account statements, and any IRS correspondence are collected upfront so you can gauge exposure at a glance.
The exact intake your fbar and offshore disclosure leads complete
This is the real 7-question guided intake for FBAR and Offshore Disclosure — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.
What a qualified fbar and offshore disclosure lead should tell you
Representation for U.S. persons with unreported foreign bank or investment accounts, missed FBAR filings, or unreported offshore income, covering voluntary disclosure options and penalty exposure before the IRS gets involved.

The questions your team needs answered
Every fbar and offshore disclosure intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Are you a U.S. person for tax purposes (for example, a U.S. citizen, green card holder, or U.S. resident)? | FBAR obligations only apply to U.S. persons, so this answer determines whether the matter falls inside your practice area at all. |
| Have you had a bank account, investment account, or other financial account outside the United States in the last 6 years? | No foreign account history in the lookback period means there is likely nothing to disclose, which changes the whole shape of the engagement. |
| In any year, did the total of all your non-U.S. accounts ever go over $10,000 (even for one day)? | The $10,000 aggregate threshold is what actually triggers the FBAR filing requirement, so this answer separates real exposure from a non-issue. |
| Do you think you may have missed filing an FBAR (foreign account report) for one or more years? | A likely missed FBAR filing is the core fact pattern this intake is built to surface, since it drives both urgency and scope of work. |
| Do you think you may have left out income from non-U.S. accounts or assets on your U.S. tax returns (such as interest, dividends, or capital gains)? | Unreported foreign income is a separate exposure from a missed FBAR and can require amended returns in addition to disclosure filings. |
| Have you received a letter, notice, or audit inquiry from the IRS about foreign accounts, offshore income, or international reporting? | Prior IRS contact narrows which disclosure programs are still available, so this answer directly affects strategy and timing. |
| Are you looking for help to catch up on past filings or to disclose non-U.S. accounts to reduce the risk of penalties? | This confirms the prospect is actually seeking disclosure help rather than general tax advice, which keeps the consultation focused on your service. |

Built for fbar and offshore disclosure workflows
| Cliont capability | FBAR And Offshore Disclosure application |
|---|---|
| Weighted lead scoring | U.S. person status, account balances over $10,000, missed FBAR filings, and prior IRS contact are each weighted so matters with real exposure rank above casual inquiries. |
| Document upload capture | Prospects can attach IRS notices and foreign account statements during intake, so you're reviewing evidence before the consultation instead of chasing it down afterward. |
| CRM routing with score attached | Qualified FBAR and offshore disclosure leads land in your CRM with their score and answers visible, so staff can prioritize IRS-notice matters over routine catch-up filings. |
| Conditional intake logic | Answers to U.S. person status and foreign account history determine what gets asked next, so someone who isn't a U.S. person isn't walked through the full disclosure questionnaire. |
Common fbar and offshore disclosure lead scenarios
Proactive voluntary catch-up filer
A U.S. person confirms years of foreign accounts over $10,000 with no FBARs ever filed and no IRS contact yet, which is the cleanest disclosure candidate and scores highest.
Already contacted by the IRS
The prospect has received a letter or audit inquiry about foreign accounts, which flags the matter for urgent review since options narrow once the IRS is already engaged.
Not a U.S. person for tax purposes
The intake identifies someone who isn't a U.S. citizen, green card holder, or resident, which the low weight on that answer surfaces as a lower-fit lead you can screen out fast.
Balance never crossed the threshold
Accounts existed but the total never went over $10,000 in any year, which scores lower since an FBAR obligation may never have been triggered, without discarding the lead outright.
Unreported income, no missed FBAR
The person filed FBARs correctly but suspects they left offshore interest or dividends off their tax return, a distinct issue from filing failures that still needs disclosure counsel.

FBAR and Offshore Disclosure lead-intake FAQs
How does the intake treat someone who isn't a U.S. person for tax purposes?
That answer carries a low weight in scoring, so the lead still comes through but ranks as lower fit, letting you spot and deprioritize matters outside your practice area without a call.
Will I know if a prospect has already heard from the IRS?
Yes, the intake asks directly whether they've received a letter, notice, or audit inquiry about foreign accounts or offshore income, and that answer carries significant weight so those matters stand out.
What if their offshore balance never actually crossed $10,000?
The intake still asks about missed filings and unreported income separately, so a lead can score lower on the threshold question but still surface a real issue worth reviewing.
What documents get collected before the consultation?
Prospects are prompted for any IRS correspondence and available account statements so you have exposure evidence in hand before the first call, rather than requesting it afterward.
Does the intake separate missed FBAR filings from unreported income on tax returns?
Yes, those are two distinct questions in the catalog, since a client can have failed to file FBARs, failed to report income, or both, and each carries its own weight in the score.
Can I use this for offshore matters outside FBAR, like crypto held abroad?
This intake is built specifically for FBAR and offshore disclosure; Cliont also offers a separate intake for Cryptocurrency and Virtual Currency Tax if that's a distinct part of your practice.
