Voluntary Disclosures: Past, Present, and Future
Voluntary disclosures are an important element of tax enforcement. This panel discusses the current state of the IRS Voluntary Disclosure Policy, including the offshore account initiative and voluntary disclosures for non-offshore account situations. It also addresses broader issues, including so called “quiet disclosures,” the role of the Examination function, the impact of civil penalties and longer-term policy issues relating to voluntary disclosures.
