Enrolled Agent (EA) | Licensed by the U.S. Department of the Treasury | NAEA Member | Founder, Tax Samaritan
Randall Brody is an Enrolled Agent licensed by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the founder of Tax Samaritan, a US expat tax practice he established in 1997 to serve Americans living and working outside the United States.
With more than 30 years of experience focused on US expat taxation and IRS tax resolution, Randall specializes in the complex compliance situations that arise when Americans live abroad including annual US tax return preparation, FBAR (FinCEN Form 114) and FATCA (Form 8938) filing, IRS audit representation, tax resolution for taxpayers with back tax obligations, and the IRS Streamlined Filing Compliance Procedures for expats who have fallen behind on their filing requirements.
His clients include US citizens living across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America, expat business owners with foreign entities, retirees abroad, and dual citizens navigating multi-country tax obligations. Since founding Tax Samaritan, Randall and his team have guided more than 9,500 taxpayers, eliminated over $800 million in tax debt, and served Americans in more than 193 countries — handling everything from straightforward expat returns to complex multi-entity structures involving foreign corporations, passive foreign investment companies (PFICs), and international tax treaties.
Randall's commentary and tax guidance have appeared in the Christian Science Monitor and the Las Vegas Review-Journal. He is a published contributor to the EA Journal, the official publication of the National Association of Enrolled Agents (NAEA), of which he is a member.
As an Enrolled Agent, Randall is authorized to represent taxpayers before the IRS in all matters — including audits, collections, and appeals. The EA credential is the highest credential awarded by the IRS and requires passing a comprehensive three-part examination covering the federal tax code, representation, and ethics. He is also an NTPI Fellow, a designation recognizing advanced training in IRS representation.
