Relative information for US Citizens and Resident Aliens living Abroad.

U.S. Citizens and Resident Aliens Abroad

If you are a U.S. citizen or resident alien, the rules for filing income, estate, and gift tax returns and paying estimated tax are generally the same whether you are in the United States or abroad.

Just so you know your worldwide income is subject to U.S. income tax, regardless of where you reside.
When to File your Tax Return. ( tax extensions)

If you are a U.S. citizen or resident alien residing overseas, or are in the military on duty outside the U.S., on the regular due date of your return, you are allowed an automatic 2-month extension to file your return and pay any amount due without requesting an extension.

For a calendar year return, the automatic 2-month extension is to June 15.

If you are unable to file your return by the automatic 2-month extension date, you can request an additional extension to October 15 by filing Form 4868 before the automatic 2-month extension date.

Please note –  Any tax due IRS payments made after June 15 will be subject to both interest charges and failure to pay penalties.
Where to File your tax return.

2. Taxpayers with an AGI greater than $57,000 can either use the Free File Fillable Forms or e file by purchasing commercial software.
Taxpayer Identification Number

Each taxpayer who files, or is claimed as a dependent on, a U.S. tax return will need a social security number  or individual taxpayer identification number .

 

To obtain a social security number.

To obtain a social security number, use form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Card. To get form SS-5, or to find out if you are eligible for a social security card, contact a Social Security Office or visit Social Security International Operations.

If you, or your spouse, are not eligible for a social security number, you can obtain an ITIN by filing form W-7 along with appropriate documentation.
