Step 1 of 7 · About 30 seconds

First, what's your US tax residential status?

No name, no email yet — just pick the one that fits you best. We'll explain each one. This single answer drives 80% of your tax outcome.

What is US tax residential status?

The US taxes people in two very different ways. Residents (citizens, Green Card holders, visa holders who meet the day-count test) are taxed on worldwide income — including Indian salary, rental, mutual funds. Non-residents are taxed only on US-source income.

Substantial Presence Test (SPT) Calculator

What is the Substantial Presence Test?

You meet SPT if you were in the US at least 31 days this year AND a weighted total of 183+ days: (this year) + (last year ÷ 3) + (year before ÷ 6).

Important — Expatriation

Exit Tax (Section 877A): If you held the Green Card for 8+ of the last 15 years and net worth ≥ $2M, you may be a Covered Expatriate. Form 8854 mandatory. Penalty for non-filing: $10,000.

What income did you earn?

Tick everything that applied — even small amounts.

A note on Indian income

US Citizens, Green Card holders, and US tax residents must report Indian income to the IRS. Indian tax paid is claimable as Foreign Tax Credit (Form 1116).

Rental property details

Indian mutual funds — PFIC alert

PFIC non-disclosure: Statute of limitations never closes on Form 8621. Streamlined Procedure can fix past non-compliance.
Step 4 of 7 · Critical for NRIs

Your Indian / foreign accounts & assets

Non-disclosure penalties run from $10,000 to 50% of asset value. Better to over-disclose to us than under-disclose to the IRS.

FBAR explained

Required if aggregate balance exceeded $10,000 at any time — includes NRO, NRE, demat, PPF, EPF, FD.

Below $10,000 — FBAR not required.

US tax FAQ

US Tax Return Questions NRIs Ask

FBAR, PFIC, dual-status, IRS notices, DTAA relief, and what documents NRIs need before CPA sign-off on Form 1040.

How do you handle data security?

We operate SOC 2 Type II–aligned controls: encryption in transit (TLS), strict access governance, audited processes, and no casual third-party sharing. Ask us for the latest SOC report summary.

Why is professional pricing higher than $99 DIY software?

$99 tools assume a plain domestic Form 1040. NRI returns routinely need FBAR, 8938, PFIC / 8621, and FTC orchestration across India and US — where errors trigger large penalties.

Do you also file Indian Income Tax Returns?

Yes — bundled with US when you engage us on both ends so FTC, treaty positions, residency, and TDS line up cleanly.

I'm an NRI living in India. Do I still need to file a US tax return?

If you are a US Citizen or Green Card Holder, yes — every year, regardless of where you live. The US taxes worldwide income for citizens and Green Card holders. Indian salary, rental, mutual funds, and capital gains are reportable. You may owe little or no US tax after Foreign Tax Credit, but the filing obligation remains.

What is the deadline to file my US tax return from India?

April 15 is the standard deadline. US citizens and residents abroad get an automatic extension to June 15. You can request further extension to October 15 (Form 4868). FBAR is due April 15 with an automatic extension to October 15.

What is FBAR and do I need to file it?

FBAR (FinCEN Form 114) reports foreign bank and financial accounts if your aggregate balances exceeded $10,000 at any time — including Indian bank, NRO, NRE, demat, and PPF. Non-filing penalties are severe.

Are Indian mutual funds really PFICs?

Almost all Indian mutual funds are PFICs for US purposes. Each position generally needs Form 8621 with an appropriate election. This is where many DIY returns fail.

I got an IRS notice. Can you help?

Yes — we draft responses and represent you where needed: CP2000, CP3219A, audits, state notices, and amendments — with appropriate Power of Attorney.

How does DTAA between India and the US help me?

The treaty reduces double taxation. You typically pay in the source country first, then claim Foreign Tax Credit (US Form 1116; India Form 67) where you are resident. Tie-breaker and withholding rules may also apply.

I missed FBAR for past years. What should I do?

The Streamlined Foreign Offshore Procedure is often the path for eligible non-willful omissions — multiple years of returns and FBARs with certification. Pricing depends on years and complexity.
