Got IRS Notice CP518? Here's what it actually means.

The IRS describes Notice CP518 as its final reminder that it still has no record of one or more required prior-year tax returns. If you receive one, check whether the return was required and whether it has already been filed, then respond promptly rather than assuming the issue will disappear.

Here's what to do before it escalates 👇

Missed a few years of US tax filings? You may only need to catch up on 3.

The Streamlined Tax Amnesty Program lets Americans and Green Card holders abroad file just their last 3 years of tax returns and 6 years of FBARs, no matter how long they've actually been behind, without facing the maximum penalties.

We've helped 1,700+ Americans abroad get back on track through this exact program.

Paying tax overseas doesn't necessarily mean paying tax twice.

For US expats, the Foreign Tax Credit (FTC) may reduce your US tax bill by giving you credit for qualifying income taxes already paid to another country. This can be especially useful for Americans living in higher-tax countries such as the UK.

The biggest difference between taxes in the UK and US is that the UK generally taxes UK tax residents, while the US taxes its citizens and Green Card holders on worldwide income.

As a result, many Americans living in the UK may need to file tax returns in both countries, although available relief can often prevent the same income from being taxed twice.

Why recalculating income gets complex?

Australian trust accounting often looks very similar to what the IRS wants for Forms 3520 and 3520-A. But the real challenge starts when the US applies different tax treatment to the assets inside the trust.

Why do Americans move abroad?

Americans relocate overseas for a wide range of reasons. Some accept international job opportunities or remote work arrangements, while others move to join a spouse or partner, retire in a more affordable location, pursue higher education, or experience a different culture. Many are also attracted by a slower pace of life, easier access to travel, or the opportunity to stretch their retirement savings.

But there's one thing that catches most people off guard once they've settled in.

Can I get US citizenship back after renouncing it?

Possibly, but it is difficult and not guaranteed. In most cases, you would need to qualify again under US immigration laws, and the process can vary depending on your circumstances.

Renouncing US citizenship is one of the most permanent decisions someone can make, and this is exactly why it should never be rushed into.

There is a lot more to know before making this decision, including the tax implications, the exit tax, and what the process actually looks like.
