Tax-Filings + Cap-Table Audit — 2026-05-09 (Dive 8)

Built: 2026-05-09 (Dive 8) by spot-checking every load-bearing tax-filing and cap-table claim in the repo against primary sources: filed federal returns (PDF copies on Synology), entity Certificates of Formation, EIN Confirmation Letters, BOIR Confirmations, Japanese tax-filing receipts, Mexican tax-ID encodings (RFC), advisor mailbox traces (Pearce / Kim & Rosado / ABS Partners / Portilla / JME), and Business Information.txt on Synology (TX SOS / NAICS / TX Tax-ID master list maintained by Austin).

Discipline: verify, don't synthesize. Every "✅" = primary source agrees with repo. Every "⚠" = source not accessible OR claim not source-tagged OR partial verification. Every "❌" = primary source disagrees with repo.

Cross-reference: Dive 7 (context/document-audit-2026-05-09.md) and context/inconsistencies-audit.md are the predecessors. This audit extends both — does NOT re-litigate findings already settled there. When this audit cites "Dive 7 Section 8" or "Inconsistencies-audit Finding 21", the reader should pull that source.

Non-goals: This is not a tax opinion. Every "overdue" / "missed election" finding here needs Pearce / Kim & Rosado / ABS Partners / JME / Portilla confirmation before any action is taken. The dive assembles the audit-ready facts; it does not opine on remedies.

Scope of "primary source" used here: - Filed return PDFs: 2023 + 2024 personal 1040 (/mnt/synology-cloud-docs/Finances/Taxes/{2023,2024}/GAVON A. RENFROE_<YR>_1040_Tax Returns.pdf). - 2012 Renfroe Innovation 1120-S, 2014 Form 7004 extension (Synology RI/Taxes/). - GK Japanese FY2025 corporate-tax + consumption-tax filing receipts (Synology RH GK/Finance and Accounting/Taxes/2025/). - Certificates of Formation, EIN Confirmation Letters, BOIR Confirmations across all US TX entities (Synology Business//Formation/). - Business Information.txt (Synology Business/) — Austin's master TX SOS/NAICS/Tax-ID list. - Pearce-Bevill mailbox thread analysis (tax/pearce-bevill-thread-summary.md). - ABS Partners mailbox thread analysis for the GK Japan side.


Section 1 — Tax-filings matrix (per-entity)

1.1 Renfroe Family Holdings, LLC (US, Texas) — RFH

Item Claimed (repo) Verified-against Status Notes
Federal classification Single-member LLC, disregarded for US tax EIN Confirmation Letter dated 2024-10-01 (Synology Formation/2024.10.01 Renfroe Family Office EIN Confirmation Letter.pdf) — "GAVON RENFROE SOLE MBR"; default classification absent 8832 = disregarded for SMLLC ✅ verified EIN: 33-1273117 (extracted from EIN letter, Dive 8). Repo does not currently capture the EIN — surface to context/entities.md:63.
Formation date 2024-07-26 (Synology cert filename) Synology 2024.07.26 Renfroe Family Holdings LLC Certificate of Formation.pdf ✅ verified (Dive 7 §1) Repo's entities.md RFH section lacks formation date — Dive 7 already flagged.

TX Tax ID 32096102572 Business Information.txt ✅ verified
BOIR submission Confirmed Synology Formation/BOIR submission confirmation - Renfroe Family Holdings.pdf ✅ verified Filed; date inside PDF not parsed this dive.
Federal returns filed "everything flows to Austin's 1040" — no separate RFH return No separate RFH return found anywhere; consistent with disregarded SMLLC default ✅ verified If Pearce later confirms RFH ever filed a separate election, this would change.
TX Franchise Tax Not explicitly captured in repo for RFH No TX No-Tax-Due / Public Information Report PDFs visible in Synology Renfroe Family Holdings/Formation ⚠ couldn't verify Dive 8 finding: Need TX Comptroller status check for RFH 2024 + 2025 annual (no-tax-due reports generally still required). Surface to advisor list.
Schedule C / passthrough Multiple Schedule E rentals attributable to RFH-held sub-LLCs flow through to Austin's 1040 2024 1040 Schedule E (line 3573 etc. — Oceana, Lavaca rentals) ✅ verified

FBAR (Austin personally as RFH owner) Not yet filed for any year through 2024; first cross Sep 24, 2025 FBAR analysis (tax/fbar-analysis.md); 2024 1040 Schedule B Part III line 7a marked NO for foreign account interest in 2024 ⚠ partial See cross-cutting findings §3 — line 7a "No" for 2024 may be defensible (Santander balances were below $10K all year), but the question asks about financial interest, which arguably exists by virtue of 99% RHG ownership regardless of threshold. Pearce position needed.
BOIR Confirmed Synology BOIR confirmation PDF ✅ verified

Open / overdue (RFH): - TX Franchise No-Tax-Due / Public Information Report 2024 + 2025 — primary doc not located on Synology; ask Pearce.

International: - 5471 — N/A (RFH does not own foreign corp directly; Austin holds RHG personally per 5471, GK is held by RFH as of 2025-03-04 but the 5471 burden flows through to Austin). - BOIR — filed 2024-11 (date inside PDF not parsed).

Federal (US) 5471, 2023 Filed Oct 15, 2024 with Austin's personal return Confirmed inside the 2023 1040 PDF (gar2023.pdf, Dive 8 parsing): Form 5471 attached, Categories 1a + 4 + 5a, voting % 99.000, Schedule A end-of-year shares 100, Schedule B Part I + II = Austin only at 99% ✅ verified "Alternative Information" Rev Proc 2019-40 code 08 used (means full GAAP-quality books not maintained — JME catch-up since).
Federal 5471, 2024 Filed Oct 15, 2025 Confirmed inside 2024 1040 PDF: Form 5471 attached, same Categories 1a + 4 + 5a, voting % 99.000, statutory agent Ximena Martinez Gonzalez ✅ verified "Alternative Information" code 08 again. U.S. taxable income reported = $0 (line "If a U.S. income tax return was filed").
Federal 5471, 2025 (next cycle) Required; deferred to 2025-cycle filing per Daisy Buck Oct 6, 2025 tax/pearce-bevill-thread-summary.md:121-145 ⚠ pending Pre-prep raised in tax/2025-filing-prep.md item 6.
Form 8832 (entity classification election) Not filed; not available for SA per se corp tax/pearce-bevill-thread-summary.md:81 (Nick Rosado Jan 27, 2025: "S.A. de C.V. is a per se corporation") ✅ verified Inconsistencies-audit Finding 17 settled this. Question becomes operative only post-S.de R.L.de C.V. conversion.
Form 8938 (FATCA) Repo claims 2023 + 2024 filed alongside 5471 (per tax/pearce-bevill-thread-summary.md:199) Form 8938 NOT visible inside the bundled 2023 or 2024 1040 PDFs that Pearce delivered to Austin's portal ⚠ contradicted-or-bundled-elsewhere Audit-defensibility concern: either (a) 8938 was filed but not bundled in the portal-delivered consolidated PDF, (b) the bundled PDF is the for-filing version and 8938 truly isn't there. Need Pearce confirmation in writing. Same for Form 3520 (Mexican fideicomiso for Oceana 433) — also claimed filed but not visible in bundled PDFs.
Form 3520 (foreign trust — Oceana 433 fideicomiso) Claimed filed 2023 + 2024 Not visible inside bundled 1040 PDFs; repo tax/pearce-bevill-thread-summary.md:199 claims filed ⚠ contradicted-or-bundled-elsewhere Same posture as 8938 above.

Mexican-side declaración anual 2024 Filed Mar 31, 2025 Per JME's annual SAT package ⚠ partial Acceptance receipt not separately captured this dive.

RNIE registration Filed Oct 2025 accounting/jme-deliverable-status.md Oct 2025 entries ✅ verified Foreign-investment registration triggered by 2025 wires from RFH to RHG.

Open / overdue (RHG MX): - 8832 election cannot be filed until S.de R.L.de C.V. conversion completes (~75-day window starts then). Conversion is downstream of Cindy consignation closing (legal/cindy-consignation-timeline.md). - 2024 5471 amendment if JME's 2025 catchup work materially restates 2024 figures (tax/pearce-bevill-thread-summary.md agenda item 6).

International: - FBAR — Santander MXN account 65-50994620-9 crossed $10K aggregate Sep 24, 2025; 2025 FBAR is required, deadline Oct 15, 2026 (auto-extension). Pearce position not refreshed since 2023 (tax/fbar-analysis.md; tax/pearce-bevill-thread-summary.md agenda 5). Pearce likely doesn't yet know the threshold crossed. - 2026 already triggered Jan 6 (carryover from 2025); 2026 FBAR due Oct 15, 2027.

Open tax questions for Pearce / Kim & Rosado / JME: 1. Were 8938 and 3520 actually filed for 2023 and 2024? Need acceptance pages from Pearce. (Dive 8 cannot find them in the portal-delivered PDFs.) 2. Confirm 2024 5471 stays as-filed or needs amendment after JME 2025 catchup. 3. Sequence: when does 8832 election open for the post-conversion S.de R.L.de C.V.? 4. Document the U.S. shareholder posture on 5471 Schedule B Part II — Austin is shown at 99% but Cindy's 1% (Mexican person, not a US shareholder) is not on Sch B at all (correctly so — Sch B Part I is US shareholders only). Verify Sch G "Other Information" + Sch O ("Organization or Reorganization") were used to disclose Cindy's 1% as a related-party 5% non-US shareholder — Dive 8 did not parse Schedule O contents.

Per tax/pearce-bevill-thread-summary.md:213 Pearce has NOT confirmed filing ❌ contradicted-or-missed (cannot find evidence of filing) HIGHEST-LEVERAGE ISSUE. Per Dive 7 Section 8 and Section 9 Q1: deadline ~13 months ago. If not filed: GK defaults to C-corp → Form 5471 + GILTI/Subpart F + PFIC analysis on rental income. If filed: GK is disregarded → Form 8858 + simpler treatment. Six-figure tax-cost differential over the asset life. Surface to Pearce + Kim & Rosado immediately; if missed, evaluate Rev Proc 2009-41 retroactive election with reasonable cause.
Form 5471 (US, if C-corp) OR Form 8858 (US, if disregarded) TBD pending 8832 confirmation. Whichever applies: first filing due with Austin's 2025 1040 (Oct 15, 2026 with extension) Not yet filed ⚠ pending
FBAR for GK / TSB account TBD; pending TSB statement balance history tax/fbar-analysis.md — TSB ¥780M advanced 2025-07-28 (presumably balance peaked then before being wired out same day for Pinnacle bridge payoff) ⚠ analysis incomplete Need TSB statement history to add the GK side to the FBAR aggregate.
PFIC analysis Never raised with Pearce tax/pearce-bevill-thread-summary.md:212 ⚠ open If GK is C-corp by default (8832 missed), PFIC analysis becomes mandatory on rental income for 2025 + every year forward.

Open / overdue (GK): - 8832 election — confirmation needed urgently (the load-bearing question of the whole audit). - 5471 vs 8858 sequencing — depends on 8832 outcome. - Forward ABS Partners FY2025 deliverables to Daisy Buck (Pearce) — tax/pearce-bevill-thread-summary.md agenda items 18 + 27. - Mita basis allocation building/land/improvements (Pearce + Shu Endo) — needed for US depreciation + cost-seg.

International: - 5471 / 8858 — see above. - BOIR — N/A (foreign corporation, not US LLC requiring BOIR). - FBAR — need TSB balance history.

TX Franchise Tax (RI 2024) Not yet filed ⚠ pending Per Pearce, "just have to file the minimum TX franchise report" once converted; conversion only completed 2025-12-05 so 2024 TX Franchise was not applicable (entity was still AL). 2025 TX Franchise + 2026 future.
BOIR Submitted 2024-11-13 by Peter Chang at Kim & Rosado Synology Formation/BOIR submission confirmation - Renfroe Innovation.pdf; BOIR ID 50000007382577 ✅ verified Anomaly: BOIR used Tax ID type "SSN-ITIN" for the entity, not "EIN" 27-2287462 (context/renfroe-innovation-scope.md:64). If RI is disregarded, this is technically correct (entity has no separate tax ID for BOIR purposes); if it's still corporate, this is wrong. Indicator that RI defaulted to disregarded SMLLC.

Section 2 — Cap-table matrix (per-entity)

For each entity below: (a) current ownership and source, (b) ownership history with primary doc per change, © manager/member-managed status, (d) cap table conflicts, (e) open cap-table questions.

2.1 Renfroe Family Holdings, LLC (US, Texas)

  • Current owners: Austin (Gavon Augustus) Renfroe — 100%, sole member.
  • Primary source: Synology Formation/2024.07.26 Renfroe Family Holdings LLC Certificate of Formation.pdf + EIN Confirmation Letter "GAVON RENFROE SOLE MBR".
  • ✅ verified.
  • Ownership history: Single-event — formed 2024-07-26 with Austin as sole member. No transfers.
  • Manager / Member-managed: Member-managed (per repo; PDF text not parsed this dive).
  • Cap table conflicts: None.
  • Open cap-table questions: None.

2.2 Renfroe Hospitality Group SA de CV (Mexico) — RHG MX

  • Current owners (per 2024 5471 filed Oct 15, 2025):
  • Austin Renfroe — 99.0% (Series A; primary doc: 2024 5471 Schedule A + B).
  • Cindy Canto — 1.0% (capital fijo MXN $500; per legal/cindy-consignation-timeline.md:99; not on Sch B Part I because not a US shareholder).
  • Capital variable (separate from capital fijo) — per JME 2026-03-11 signed FS bundle, capital variable MXN 46.7M is 100% Austin (legal/cindy-consignation-timeline.md:96-99).
  • ✅ verified at the 5471 level for the SA-period 99/1 split.
  • ⚠ couldn't verify the Acta Constitutiva-level original cap table — Acta is missing (Dive 7 §4 high-priority missing doc).
  • Ownership history:
  • 2023-02-02: Incorporated. Original cap table per repo: 99% Austin + 1% Cindy. Acta Constitutiva missing — not verifiable to gold standard.
  • 2025–2026: Cindy consignation in progress (legal/cindy-consignation-timeline.md); upon completion → cap table cleaned of Cindy → S.A. de C.V. converts to S. de R.L. de C.V. → ownership transfers to Casa Moksha LLC + Casa Moksha Holdings LLC (both US TX, both RFH-managed). Activation expected 2026.
  • The two-member US-LLC pair satisfies the Mexican S. de R.L. de C.V. minimum-two-member requirement.
  • Manager / governance: Per Mexican corporate law for S.A. de C.V.; specifics not parsed.
  • Cap-table conflicts:
  • Earlier framing in entities.md:75 "post-conversion ownership may shift to Renfroe Family Holdings" is stale — corrected per Inconsistencies-audit Finding 19.
  • Cindy's "fraudulent" cap-table characterization in legal/cindy-consignation-timeline.md:48 lacks a primary-source citation in this audit. Likely sourced from Portilla DD memo MEMO RENFROE 30062025.pdf (on Synology, not parsed in this dive).
  • Open cap-table questions:
  • Acta Constitutiva — primary source needed (Portilla / JME / notary).
  • Cindy 1% / capital fijo MXN 500 origin doc (was it a real subscription, or did she add herself fraudulently to the cap table?).
  • Will the post-conversion S.de R.L.de C.V. ownership be 50/50 Casa Moksha LLC + Casa Moksha Holdings LLC, or some other split? Specify in the conversion paperwork.

2.3 Renfroe Holdings GK (Japan) — GK

  • Current owners (per entities.md:127 + Synology Initial Registration + Revised Registration):
  • Renfroe Family Holdings, LLC — 100%, sole member.
  • Austin (personally) — 職務執行者 (officer executing duties on behalf of the LLC, since Japanese LLCs cannot have an LLC as a direct executive officer).
  • ✅ verified at the registration-filename / repo level. Internal PDF text in Japanese not parsed this dive.
  • Ownership history:
  • 2025-01-24 — Formed. Initial members: Austin (personally) + Yuriko Kato (née Saho).
  • 2025-03-04 — Austin retired personally; Renfroe Family Holdings, LLC joined in his place.
  • 2025-08-19 — Yuriko Kato retired; RFH became sole member.
  • Filed registration sequence in Synology Formation/.
  • Manager: Austin as 職務執行者 for RFH-LLC (the corporate member).
  • Cap-table conflicts:
  • The "NEW Renfroe Holdings GK" being formed by Tohyama Office to take over Mita ownership (per entities.md:118 + context/communications-deep-dive.md 2026-05-09) means the existing GK is not the long-run holder. Successor entity's cap table TBD.
  • Open cap-table questions:
  • The new-GK successor: what's its cap table? Same RFH-100% structure or different? When does it close on Mita transfer?
  • The membership-interest transfer at fair market value triggers US capital-gain exposure on the existing RFH-LLC (per entities.md:118). Pearce + Kim & Rosado review needed.
  • 8832 election status (existing GK + new-GK — both have separate 75-day windows from formation).

2.4 Renfroe Innovation, LLC (Texas) — RI

  • Current owner: Austin Renfroe — 100%, sole member (per BOIR 2024-11-13 + 2025-12-02 TX Cert of Formation Form 205).
  • ✅ verified at the BOIR + TX SOS level.
  • ⚠ The Eugene + Jana 0.05% × 2 share-assignment paperwork pre-2017 conversion is NOT in Synology (per context/renfroe-innovation-scope.md:142-149). Austin verbally confirmed they were assigned to him pre-conversion. Treat the SMLLC as genuinely single-member but don't cite the paperwork until collected.
  • Ownership history:
  • 2010-04-05 — Renfroe Innovation, Inc. formed (AL C-corp). Initial directors: Eugene + Jana Renfroe; incorporator Jana. Authorized: 1,000 Class A voting + 1,000,000 Class B non-voting common, $0.01 par. Source: Synology Articles of Incorporation.
  • By 2012-04 (per 2012 Form 1120-S Schedule K-1): 4 shareholders — Eugene 0.05%, Jana 0.05%, Hunter ~49.95%, Austin ~49.95%. Total 999,500 issued shares of 1,001,000 authorized.
  • 2014-04-01 — Hunter H. Renfroe assigned all 500 Class A + 500,000 Class B shares to Austin "in consideration of reimbursement of all cost incurred by and investment made by Hunter". New Stock Cert 5-A + 3-B issued. Austin becomes ~99.9% holder. Source: Synology Formation/Assignment of Shares by Hunter to Austin (01446010x9D9C7).pdf + Stock Certifices A-5 and B-3 - Executed.pdf.
  • Pre-2017-07-10 conversion — Eugene + Jana assigned their 0.05% × 2 stakes to Austin to make the entity single-member. Paperwork NOT in Synology. Austin verbally confirmed.
  • 2017-07-10 — AL Inc.→LLC conversion accepted/filed. Austin sole member.
  • 2025-12-05 — AL→TX conversion accepted by TX SOS (file # 806342204).
  • Manager / Member-managed: Member-managed (per 2025-12-02 TX Cert of Formation Form 205); sole member = Gavon Renfroe.
  • Cap-table conflicts:
  • Hunter pronoun conflictRESOLVED 2026-05-10 by Austin direct: Hunter is male, Austin's brother. 2012 1120-S "her shares" reference is a typo on the source form, not Hunter's gender.
  • Open cap-table questions:
  • Eugene + Jana share-assignment paperwork (location).
  • Hunter pronoun — RESOLVED 2026-05-10.

2.5 Five Points BHM Holdings, LLC (US, Texas)

  • Current owner: Austin Renfroe — 100%, sole member (per EIN letter "GAVON RENFROE SOLE MBR" + Cert of Formation).
  • ✅ verified.
  • Ownership history: Single-event — formed 2024-10-18, Austin sole member. No transfers.
  • Manager / Member-managed: Member-managed (per repo; PDF text not parsed this dive).
  • Cap-table conflicts: None at entity level. (Funding-side has the AFR / Stuart Memory note ambiguity — but that's a debt instrument, not a cap-table issue.)
  • Open cap-table questions: None at entity level.

2.6 W 3101 Holdings, LLC (US, Texas)

  • Current owner: Austin (sole member). Marina paperwork was originally written in Austin's personal name (marina's error); per entities.md:233 resolved with marina.
  • Ownership history: Formed 2024-08-09; no transfers.
  • Cap-table conflicts: Originally-written-in-personal-name issue resolved per repo (no primary source for resolution date — Inconsistencies-audit Finding 41).

2.10 Renfroe Hospitality Group, LLC (US TX) — RHG-LLC (US)

  • Current owner: Austin (sole member). Manager: Renfroe Family Holdings, LLC per entities.md:93.
  • Ownership history: Formed 2024-08-09; "Empty / inactive". No transfers.
  • Cap-table conflicts: None at entity level. Note the entity name shares with the Mexican RHG SA de CV — same name, different jurisdiction. Repo correctly distinguishes.

2.11 Casa Moksha LLC (US, Texas)

  • Governance: Manager-managed — ✅ verified via OCR of the TX Cert of Formation Filing PDF (2026-05-09). Article 3 IA selected: "The limited liability company is to be managed by managers."

OCR text saved at source-data/ocr/casa-moksha-formation/2025.10.13_Casa_Moksha_LLC_Certificate_of_Formation_Filing_.full.txt.
  • Member of record: Renfroe Family Holdings, LLC — ✅ confirmed by Austin 2026-05-10. RFH is the member of all US LLCs in the stack (including this one). This is the canonical rule; the TX Cert of Formation doesn't list members, but Austin's verbal confirmation is primary source.
  • EIN: 41-3910564 (per Dive 8).
  • Ownership history: Formed 2025-10-13 (TX SOS file # 806257567); "Not yet in use" pending the 2026 RHG reorg.
  • Cap-table conflicts: Resolved. Post-conversion ownership flow: Austin → RFH → CM-LLC + CM-Holdings-LLC → RHG MX (four layers, fully consistent with the rest of the US stack).
  • Open: None.

2.12 Casa Moksha Holdings LLC (US, Texas)

  • Governance: Manager-managed — ✅ verified via OCR of the TX Cert of Formation Filing PDF (2026-05-09).

2.13 1006 20th St S, LLC (defunct AL)

  • Current owners (pre-bankruptcy): Per entities.md:255 "Austin's brother Hunter and a business partner" — co-owners. Specific %s not in repo.
  • Cap-table conflicts: Hunter pronoun conflict — RESOLVED 2026-05-10 (same as RI Section 2.4).
  • Open: Pre-bankruptcy cap table % per primary doc (formation paperwork or restated 2023 books).

2.14 The Woolworth, LLC (defunct AL)

  • Current owners (pre-closure): Per entities.md:266 Hunter Renfroe was "the original borrower" on Loan 7803 — implies Hunter was the principal/owner. Austin's role was "personal guarantor" (not owner of record).
  • Cap-table conflicts: Hunter is the named borrower (substantively-owner); Austin is guarantor. Repo treats Austin as the economic-substance party for SBA debt servicing (entities.md:260-261).
  • Open: Original Woolworth operating agreement / cap-table primary doc.

2.15 RF Austin Operating LLC (Red Farm)

  • Position: Austin holds equity worth $120,833 (entities.md:385).
  • Cap-table: Austin is one of multiple equity holders; the 2024 K-1 shows "Ptnr 20" suggesting Austin is partner 20 in a multi-partner LLC. No cap-table data on the entity.
  • Open: Pre-shutdown cap table (Pearce / Red Farm wind-down records).

2.16 Pre-2026 reorg pending entities (RHG-LLC + Casa Moksha LLC pair)

  • See 2.10, 2.11, 2.12. Activation contingent on Cindy consignation closing + Mexican S.A.→S.de R.L.de C.V. conversion.
  • Open: Once activated, primary-source the post-conversion cap table — likely 50/50 split of post-conversion S.de R.L.de C.V. shares.

3.3 Top 10 high-stakes audit-defensibility issues, ranked

  1. GK Form 8832 election status — highest leverage. Six-figure tax-cost differential over asset life depending on whether GK is C-corp (default) or disregarded (8832 elected). Deadline was ~2025-04-09; ~13 months past. If filed: where's the IRS acceptance letter? If not filed: evaluate Rev Proc 2009-41 retroactive election with reasonable cause. Pearce + Kim & Rosado.

  2. BOIR overdue across 3-4 entities (W 3101 + Casa Moksha LLC + Casa Moksha Holdings LLC + possibly Austin Marine). CTA penalty exposure compounding daily. Quick fix; high-criticality compliance gap.

  3. Five Points BHM Holdings, LLC TX Franchise + Notice of Forfeiture (~6 months past notice). Operating with in-doubt right-to-transact on a $5M+ commercial building = real liability exposure. Skinner Legal + Pearce. Inconsistencies-audit Finding 8 / Dive 7 §8.

  4. Form 3520 + Form 8938 apparent absence from filed 2023 + 2024 personal returns (or absence from portal-bundled PDFs). If actually filed: portal-bundled PDF doesn't include them; need Pearce-confirmed acceptance pages. If actually not filed: penalties up to greater of $10K or 35% of trust transactions for 3520; up to $50K + criminal exposure for 8938. Highest-value audit-defensibility item if the gap is real, not just a portal-bundle artifact.

  5. 2024 1040 Schedule B Part III line 7a marked "No" for foreign-account financial interest — Austin is 99% owner of a Mexican entity that holds 3 Santander accounts. Even though aggregate didn't cross $10K threshold in 2024 (so FBAR question correctly answered "no, not required to file 114"), line 7a asks about interest regardless of threshold. Pearce should confirm this is the position they've taken and document the rationale. If contested, position may need amendment.

  6. PFIC analysis on GK rental income — never raised with Pearce. If GK is C-corp by default, PFIC default treatment (Excess Distribution) is severe. Evaluate real-estate-trade-or-business qualification (would exempt) vs. QEF election vs. Mark-to-Market. tax/2025-filing-prep.md agenda 2.

  7. Renfroe Innovation 2017 Form 8832 question — open ~9 years. If 8832 was not filed at 2017 Inc.→LLC conversion, S-election terminated by operation of law; entity has been disregarded SMLLC since 2017. The ~$72K post-2017 IP/legal spend (per accounting/renfroe-innovation-historical-ip-spend.md) treatment depends on this answer. Surface to Pearce + Kim & Rosado.

  8. AFR-loan paperwork absence (Stuart Memory's missing notes for Five Points + Mita parents → Austin legs). Without §7872-compliant promissory notes + 1099-INT history, the entire intrafamily loan structure is recharacterizable as gifts (gift-tax exposure to parents) or constructive distributions (income-tax exposure to Austin). ~$2.65M of intrafamily debt without paper.

  9. Acta Constitutiva for RHG SA de CV — gold-standard formation doc missing. All Mexican-side tax/governance work hangs off it. Original cap table (Cindy's 1% provenance), capital fijo amount, charter purpose, bylaw text. Portilla / JME / notary should have a copy.

  10. 5471 historical Schedule B foreign-shareholder disclosure (RHG MX) — Cindy's 1% not on Part I (correct, US-only) but Schedule O / G placement of her 1% as non-US related-party shareholder not yet verified. Could be a 5471 reporting gap; or could be correctly treated. Pearce verify.

Section 5 — Top open questions

Highest-leverage questions, ranked. (Q1–Q10 of Dive 7 are not duplicated; new questions only.)

Q1 (NEW) — Were Form 3520 and Form 8938 actually filed for 2023 and 2024, or are they just absent from the portal-bundled PDFs?

Why it matters: Penalties for 3520 non-filing: greater of $10K or 35% of trust transactions per year. Penalties for 8938 non-filing: $10K + $10K-per-30-days continued failure (max $60K) + criminal exposure for willful. Two consecutive years × 2 forms = 4 instances of potential exposure.

Who could answer: Daisy Buck (Pearce). She prepared the returns and would have the IRS acceptance pages or e-file confirmations.

What evidence would close: Either (a) the IRS acceptance pages for 3520 + 8938 for both years, or (b) a Pearce written statement that they assessed the requirements as not-applicable and chose not to file (with the reasoning documented).

Q2 (NEW) — On the 2024 personal return, why is Schedule B Part III line 7a marked "No" given Austin's 99% RHG MX ownership?

Why it matters: Audit-defensibility issue. The IRS instructions for line 7a ask about financial interest in or signature authority over a foreign account, regardless of $10K threshold. Even though FBAR (line 7a's sub-question) is correctly "no, not required" because aggregate was below $10K in 2024, the parent line 7a's "yes/no" answer is about interest existence.

Who could answer: Daisy Buck / Robert Cook.

What evidence would close: Pearce's written rationale (likely they're treating the corporate-veil position — Austin's interest in RHG's accounts is indirect-via-corporation, so line 7a is "no"). If that's their position, document it; if not, amend.

Q3 (NEW) — BOIR sweep: are W 3101, Casa Moksha LLC, Casa Moksha Holdings LLC, and Austin Marine compliant?

Why it matters: CTA penalties accrue daily ($591/day per entity at current inflation-adjusted rates, civil only; plus criminal for willful violations).

Who could answer: Whoever has been handling RFH-side BOIRs (looks like Austin himself for the older entities, Kim & Rosado for RI). Need to confirm whether these 4 entities had BOIRs filed.

What evidence would close: BOIR confirmation PDFs for each, OR a documented decision that filing is on hold pending CTA litigation outcomes (with a decision date and reasoning). Note: BOIR rules have been in flux; check current FinCEN guidance, but at time of formation BOIR was required for new entities.

Q4 (RESOLVED 2026-05-10) — Casa Moksha LLC + Casa Moksha Holdings LLC member of record

Closed. Member of record on both: Renfroe Family Holdings, LLC (Austin verbal confirmation 2026-05-10). Governance: manager-managed by RFH (OCR-verified Article 3 IA on TX Cert of Formation). OCR artifacts at source-data/ocr/casa-moksha-formation/.

Canonical rule (per Austin): RFH is the member of all US LLCs in the stack — no exceptions. This is the post-conversion ownership flow: Austin → RFH → CM-LLC + CM-Holdings-LLC → RHG MX. Future audit work should not re-question this for any US LLC.

Why it matters: The repo treats these LLCs as "RFH-managed", which is consistent with the Cert of Formation's Manager designation. But the member of record can be different from the Manager. If members are Austin personally (not RFH), the post-conversion S.de R.L.de C.V. ownership flow goes to Austin, not RFH. Affects 5471 reporting structure.

Who could answer: TX SOS direct lookup or Skinner Legal (if they prepared the formation paperwork).

What evidence would close: Member-of-record reading on the Cert of Formation.

Q5 (NEW) — Renfroe Innovation 2017 Form 8832 question: what's the actual federal-classification answer?

Why it matters: Inconsistencies-audit Finding 20. Without a Form 8832, the post-2017 SMLLC has been disregarded since 2017 (S-election terminated). The ~$72K post-2017 IP/legal spend per accounting/renfroe-innovation-historical-ip-spend.md treatment depends on this. Outstanding ~9 years.

Who could answer: Pearce + Kim & Rosado.

What evidence would close: Either the IRS acceptance of 8832 (if filed), or Pearce's written statement that the entity has been disregarded since 2017 + how Austin's 1040 supporting schedules treat it.

Why it matters: 5471 reporting completeness. Sch B Part I is US shareholders only (correctly omits Cindy). Schedule O reports organizations / acquisitions; Schedule G covers other information. Whether Cindy's 1% is captured anywhere on the 5471 (or if it should be) needs verification.

Who could answer: Daisy Buck.

What evidence would close: Schedule O + G line-by-line review of 2023 + 2024 5471s.

Q7 (NEW) — TX Franchise compliance sweep — for ALL 12 RFH-stack TX entities, what's the 2024 + 2025 + 2026 (first-year) status?

Why it matters: Five Points BHM Holdings is already in Notice of Forfeiture; assume others may be in similar posture without anyone noticing. TX Franchise No-Tax-Due / Public Information Report is annual.

Who could answer: Pearce / TX Comptroller direct.

What evidence would close: A 12-entity grid of filing status per year.

Q8 (NEW) — Pearce's written posture on PFIC for GK rental income for 2025-cycle filing.

Why it matters: PFIC default treatment is severe. If GK is C-corp by default (8832 missed), PFIC analysis is mandatory. Real-estate-trade-or-business qualification would exempt from PFIC (regular & continuous management, multiple tenants or active services).

Who could answer: Pearce (Daisy / Robert) with Kim & Rosado support.

What evidence would close: A position memo for the 2025 5471 or 8858 filing showing the analysis.

Q9 (NEW) — Ownership flow at the Casa Moksha LLC + Casa Moksha Holdings LLC pair: post-conversion split (50/50? 99/1? other?) and US-side 5471 treatment

Why it matters: Once RHG MX converts, two US-side LLCs jointly own a CFC. Each LLC's US-side member becomes a US shareholder for 5471 purposes. If both are owned by Austin personally (rather than RFH), Austin reports as US shareholder. If owned by RFH (disregarded), reports flow to Austin's 1040 anyway. The split percentage between CM LLC and CMH LLC matters for capital-gain allocation on any future sale.

Who could answer: Skinner Legal / Kim & Rosado.

What evidence would close: The conversion paperwork (when filed) showing CM LLC's % vs CMH LLC's %.

Q10 (NEW) — New-GK successor entity: when does it close on Mita transfer, what's its cap table, and how is the membership-interest transfer structured for US tax purposes?

Why it matters: The transfer triggers US capital-gain exposure on the existing RFH-LLC (as transferor). entities.md:118 says ABS Partners (Endo) cleared the Japan side; needs Pearce / Kim & Rosado on the US side.

Who could answer: Pearce + Kim & Rosado + Tohyama Office (Takeshima Tohru).

What evidence would close: The transfer documentation + Pearce's US-side memo.
