The dedication of the IRS to shooting jaywalkers in their foreign account compliance programs is yielding impressive results. From Andrew Mitchel:
The number of Published Expatriates for the second quarter of 2011 was 519. This is the second highest number of quarterly Published Expatriates during the past seven years. The only higher quarter during this time was the second quarter of 2010, with 560 Published Expatriates.If current trends continue, the number of Published Expatriates for 2011 will exceed 2010 by 30% or more. The following graph shows the quarterly average number of Published Expatriates since 2004.
It's a tribute to the sensitive and judicious IRS handling of trivial violations of the foreign account reporting rules.
