Can You Help Me Renounce My US Citizenship?

Yes—Greenback can assist with the tax filing requirements involved in renouncing your US citizenship.

Renouncing your citizenship is a major decision, and if you’ve determined it’s the right step for you, we’re here to help ensure you meet the IRS compliance requirements tied to expatriation.

What’s Required to Renounce US Citizenship?

Before you can formally renounce, you must be fully caught up on your US tax obligations. This typically includes:

• Filing your last 5 years of US Federal Tax Returns
• Filing Foreign Bank Account Reports (FBARs) for those same years
• Filing a final dual-status or full-year tax return in the year of renunciation
• Filing Form 8854 to formally expatriate and certify compliance
• Possibly filing additional forms if you are considered a “covered expatriate”

In some cases, individuals may need to file up to 8 years of returns, depending on their history and specific consular requirements.
