Well generally, you pay taxes on income, not stores of wealth. If the account gains interests, you are supposed to pay taxes on that interest.

If you file taxes in the US, you are supposed to file form TD F 90-22.1 by June 30th of any year that you have foreign financial accounts toally more than $10,000 US dollars (at dec 31st exchange rates). This is a wealth disclosure form that goes to the US treasury, not the IRS, and is not a statement of income.

Will the IRS levy my mother's bank account for my taxes if my name is on the account for inheretence purposes?

It sounds like your mother has an account with an "in trust for" phrase on the name of the account. She intends for you to inherit the money without that money having to go through the probate court. At least that is how it works in this particular state. Normally, the IRS does not touch that type of account. However, if you owe back taxes and the account contains any money when she dies, they will take it before you get it.
