Cuenca, Ecuador
Hola, soy Chip Moreno
Soy un estadounidense viviendo en Cuenca, Ecuador. Fundé FileAbroad — el servicio de preparación de impuestos de EE. UU. asociado a EcuaPass — para ayudar a otros compatriotas en el extranjero a cumplir con sus obligaciones fiscales de EE. UU. con un alcance claro, comunicación directa y precios publicados.
Por Qué Fundé FileAbroad
- 01
Living abroad makes ordinary tax questions more layered. A foreign address can change deadlines; foreign accounts can create separate reporting; and FEIE, the Foreign Tax Credit, state residency, and local tax questions do not resolve one another.
- 02
FileAbroad turns those questions into a documented scope. Every accepted client works directly with me. I prepare the forms and filings included in the engagement—such as FEIE, Foreign Tax Credit, FBAR, or FATCA reporting—with the scope confirmed before preparation begins.
- 03
I also know the practical friction: time zones, foreign bank statements, missing records, and the difference between a U.S. filing question and a local-tax question. When the facts require legal, audit, entity, or local-country advice, the right answer is a referral—not a vague promise that one preparer can do everything.
Trayectoria
IRS PTIN Holder
Registered with the IRS as a paid tax return preparer. A PTIN is a preparer identifier, not a CPA, EA, or attorney credential.
IRS E-file Participant
FileAbroad participates in the IRS e-file program for accepted federal returns. This is not an IRS endorsement, and the private EFIN is never displayed publicly.
Computer Science Degree
Technical background that drives the systems and automation behind FileAbroad.
Based in Cuenca, Ecuador
Living the expat life firsthand. I deal with the same cross-border tax questions my clients face.
Clear Scope and Direct Accountability
You work directly with Chip, with flat-fee deliverables explained before payment. Audit representation and legal work are outside the standard engagement scope.
Otros Proyectos
FileAbroad is part of a broader ecosystem of tools and services I build for the expat community.
EcuaPass
Administrative visa-document preparation and process coordination for Americans moving to Ecuador. EcuaPass does not currently have an Ecuadorian attorney on staff and does not promise legal representation.
Iterative Systems LLC
The parent company behind FileAbroad and EcuaPass. I build technology and services for the American expat community.
