Common questions

I live abroad. When is my US return due?

Americans living abroad get an automatic extension to June 15. Non-residents filing Form 1040-NR are due April 15 if they had US wages subject to withholding, and June 15 otherwise.

Do I need to file an FBAR?

If you’re a US person and your foreign accounts added together were over $10,000 at any point during the year, yes.

Do I have to come to the US?

No. Everything, including ITIN document verification, is done online.
