What’s Included

  • Complete Form 1040 preparation and filing
  • Foreign Earned Income Exclusion or Foreign Tax Credit, when applicable
  • One each of Schedules A–E included
  • Prepared by a dedicated expat CPA or IRS Enrolled Agent
  • Additional forms or reporting added only when your situation requires them

Why start with your federal tax return?

Your federal return is the foundation for many common expat filings. Foreign income, exclusions, tax credits, and additional reporting often connect back to Form 1040, so starting there helps your accountant identify what else may apply.

Tell us what you need. We’ll take it from there.

You don’t need to know every form or service that applies to you. Start with a few questions about your tax situation, and we’ll match you with an expat accountant who can identify what you need.

Real experiences from Americans living abroad

TRUSTED BY EXPATS WORLDWIDE

“Our Greenback accountant was very competent, professional, and
conscientious. She helped us very much with our FBAR and taxes. We will
definitely work with her again next year.”

Hilmar S-N United States

“I was hesitant to use an only online service but this one is top notch! Nisha was
professional, knowledgeable and clear in all her communications. I would highly
recommend for filing FBAR.”

Gail O. United Kingdom

“Initially, she assisted me with streamlined filing procedures and FBAR filings and
then she guided me through the complications of moving overseas and filing as a
dual citizen. I have no hesitation in recommending Greenback.”
