Background The matter involves a foreign-owned single-member U.S. LLC that had little or no operational activity. The facts may involve questions regarding: *Whether any reportable transaction occurred. *Whether Form 5472 and a pro forma Form 1120 filing requirement existed. *Whether corrective action should be considered. *Potential penalty exposure. *Availability of reasonable-cause arguments if required. *The complete factual background will be provided to shortlisted candidates. Scope of Work The ideal engagement would include: *Review of the facts provided. *Identification of any potentially relevant reportable transactions. *Analysis of whether a Form 5472 filing obligation likely existed. *Assessment of practical and legal risks. *Discussion of potential options and their advantages/disadvantages. *Recommendation regarding the most appropriate strategy. *A concise written summary of findings and conclusions. Required Experience Please apply *ONLY* if you have direct experience with: *Foreign-owned single-member U.S. LLCs. *Form 5472 reporting and compliance. *Treasury Regulation §1.6038A. *Foreign-owned disregarded entities. *International tax compliance. *IRS penalty and reasonable-cause matters. When Applying: Please include: Your professional designation (CPA, EA, Tax Attorney, etc.). Years of experience in U.S. international tax. Your experience with Form 5472 matters. Whether you have advised foreign-owned single-member LLCs regarding filing obligations and late-filing issues. Whether you can provide a written assessment and recommendation. Screening Question: *** Please briefly describe your direct experience with Form 5472 and foreign-owned single-member LLCs, including how you would approach determining whether a filing obligation existed under a fact pattern where the existence of a reportable transaction is uncertain. We are seeking expertise, judgment, and relevant experience rather than simply the lowest-cost bid.
