Common questions
Do Alipay or WeChat balances count?
The FBAR rules cover accounts at foreign financial institutions; whether a particular wallet or wealth-management product is reportable depends on how it is held. We review each one with you.

Non-willful late filers usually have good options; see our Streamlined (SFOP/SDOP) service.
