Sean M. Golding

Mr. Golding and his team helped me with an IRS Form 3520 penalty case. From the very beginning, they explained my options clearly and handled the appeal process efficiently. I was especially grateful for their professionalism, patience, and responsiveness at every stage. In the end, the penalty wa...s successfully abated and the case was resolved fully. Highly recommended!

I’ve just completed the OVDP process. Sean was a tremendous help to me through the entire, complicated procedure. Sean provided expert advice where things were particularly difficult. He is highly experienced with this sort of work and has an excellent knowledge of both US and Australian tax laws.... Sean used this knowledge to negotiate with the IRS a substantially reduced penalty that I had to pay. Sean was always reassuring through our multiple phone conferences and emails. Sean’s team was also most helpful when I needed to arrange for calls or needed extra information. I feel fortunate to have found him on the net. I would highly recommend Sean and team to anyone who finds themselves with US/foreign tax issues.

I am a Singaporean National and was a residential alien in the States. I had not filed my offshore accounts for years because I wasn't aware that I needed to do that. I panicked and called a bunch of lawyers to deal with the situation, most of whom tried to scare me. Only Sean was incredibly reassuri...ng and knowledgeable about the specific rules in my specific situation, even the first time we were on the phone. After that he filed Streamlined Filing Compliance Program for me and amended my erroneous years of tax returns. Everything was resolved quickly. The whole process was very smooth. I am grateful.

Having left the US over two decades ago, I was unaware of my filing obligations both in terms of income tax and FATCA and that I was unintentionally non-compliant. Have realised that I should have been filing, I started doing research on the internet on how to get back into compliance. Many of th...e websites that I saw from various 'advisors' suggested that I was going to be heavily fined and possibly convicted. When I found Golding & Golding's website, it was full of helpful information about the steps required to get back into compliance and the options available. I then contacted Sean who explained very clearly what my obligations were, how to rectify the situation and any potential liability I might have. He put my mind to rest on the potential downside of my situation. Sean and his team then quickly and efficiently processed all of the required filings and submitted them on my behalf. Although I did owe some money to the IRS, it was a fraction of what I had feared that it might be and now I can rest easy that I have met all my filing obligations. I can't thank Sean and his team enough for their advice and assistance.
