Location Not only that we also noticed that some taxpayers: Did not fill in their Form W4 properly and ended up paying heavy taxes at the end of the tax year with underpayment penalty. penalty Filed Resident Individual Tax Returns (1040/1040A/1040EZ) electronically through online portals ignorant of the fact that they were were Nonresident Aliens who have to file Form 1040NR/NR-EZ EZ manually. manually Missed claiming Home Mortgage Interest on their Second Home in Foreign Country (e.g. India). Missed claiming benefits of US US-India Tax Treaty for Nonresident Aliens on F/M/J Visa. Some erroneously applied this clause while they were on H1/L1 Visa. Missed claiming their Spouse/Kids in India though they qualified as US Resident Aliens per IRS Publication 519. Missed reporting their Foreign Income like Foreign Salary, Interest, Dividends, Dividends etc. on their US Tax Returns and ignored filing FBAR FBAR. This resulted in payment of huge penalties and fines to IRS. Erroneously claimed the Foreign Income Exclusion on Form 2555 instead of Foreign Tax Credit on Form 1116 to avoid double taxation taxation. Missed claiming Erroneous Withdrawal of Social Security & Medicare Taxes while they were on F/M/J/Q Visa. Missed filing the State Income Tax Return for the state they lived in just because the Employer issued W2 from the state he/she worked. Missed filing City/County Income Tax Returns in which they resided/worked. Important: The Average Refund on an Amended Tax Return has been more than $2,000!!!
