Abstract of "Till Offshore Do Us Part":

This paper explores how U.S. tax authorities may assist spouses in the uncovering of offshore assets in divorce proceedings and thus decrease the ability of some of the wealthiest taxpayers to use offshore accounts to escape taxation. Specifically, it will outline a proposal for allowing spouses to alert the IRS to unreported offshore accounts during an early phase of the discovery process.
