  I assume you are afraid of a political act causing this and not because of a debt or criminal act? I don’t think the other poster gets that

  Yes, reporting foreign income and paying taxes is exactly what keeps the US from seizing and freezing accounts.

  you said you don’t want to avoid paying taxes.

  If you pay taxes, then you’re in no danger of the US government seizing or freezing your accounts.

    I don’t know if you’ve been following the news but I’d say that’s wishful thinking at this point.

      i have.

      you want to be part of the US tax system while being “out of reach of the federal government”, two aims you should understand are incompatible.
