.

Starting in 2026, a new IRS filing mandate will require all taxpayers aged 60 and above, plus green card holders, naturalized citizens, and qualifying visa holders, to answer expanded questions about foreign financial accounts on Form 1040. The reporting thresholds for Form 8938 are dropping to $25,000 year-end and $40,000 peak, meaning many who never filed before must now disclose overseas assets.
The FBAR threshold remains at $10,000, but automatic cross-checking between IRS systems will flag inconsistencies and trigger audits. Non-compliance risks severe penalties—up to $10,000 per account for FBAR violations and $50,000 for repeated Form 8938 failures—plus potential immigration consequences for green card and citizenship applicants.
In this video, you'll learn:
✅ Exactly what the new 2026 IRS rule requires
