Is Overseas Account Reportable to IRS?

I opened an account overseas in my country because I have dual nationality and my father will wire me money into my convertible acount as a gift. What are the laws for this, and do I have to report it since it is a gift?

We cannot provide you with tax advice about the transfers from your father. If you file tax returns with the IRS, you are required to answer a question each year whether you have control over accounts at banks outside the U.S.
