Frequently Asked Questions
- Which option should I pick if I'm filing this year?
- The $49 filing. You get the full filing package andpermanent access to the Form 5472 walkthrough pack — every Form 5472 + mail-to-IRS video — yours to re-watch any time, including 12 months later when an IRS notice arrives. One-time charge, no expiration, no auto-renewal. (Other products' videos come with their own filing, or with membership.)
- Which option should I pick if I've already filed?
- The $9.99/month subscription— but only if you want what's new after your filing. Pick this if you want deadline reminders, AI priority, year-over-year carryover, OBBBA rule-change alerts, and every new walkthrough we publish going forward. Skip it if you already filed with us and just need the original videos — those are already yours forever.
- Is the $49 video access really forever?
- Yes. When you pay $49 for the filing, the Form 5472 walkthrough pack (every Form 5472 + mail-to-IRS video) becomes yours to watch any time — no 30-day clock, no annual reset, no re-payment to re-watch. Tax notices show up months later; we don't lock you out of the content that explains what you did.
- So what does the $9.99/month subscription add over the $49 filing?
- Three forward-looking things: (1) the IRS deadline reminder system (60/30/7 days before each deadline that applies to your entity), (2) 5× AI assistant rate limit (100 messages/hour vs 20), and (3) every NEW walkthrough we publish after your purchase — including any IRS form changes, OBBBA-related guidance, or new countries we add. Subscription = ongoing flow plus the full all-product library; filing = the one-time deliverable plus its Form 5472 video pack.
- Can I cancel the subscription any time?
- Yes. Cancel from /membership/manage any time. Cancellation stops the next month's charge — your access continues through the end of the current billing period. No pro-rating for partial months.
- Can I see any of the videos before paying?
- Yes — every topic includes at least one free preview video, including the DHL Express booking demos. Browse them at /learn or check the mail-to-IRS guide at /guides/mail-form-5472-to-irs. Your $49 Form 5472 filingunlocks this product's walkthrough pack (every Form 5472 + mail-to-IRS video); membership ($9.99/month)unlocks the full current library — most of which are Form 5472 walkthroughs today — plus every product's videos as we publish them.
