Green Card in hand? 🟢

From the first day you are admitted as a lawful permanent resident you are taxed exactly like a U.S. citizen.

That means worldwide income.

Indian salary, Indian rental income & Indian bank interest.

All of it goes on your U.S. tax return.

And your Green Card remains in effect until it is revoked or abandoned even if you live outside the U.S.

Sold a stock at a loss? 📉

If you bought the same stock back within 30 days
before OR after the sale the IRS calls it a wash sale.

Your loss is disallowed.
It gets added to the cost basis of the new shares instead.

This catches a lot of investors off guard.
Plan your trades before year-end.
