US taxes for Americans with Indian income

India's tax year runs April to March and its documents have no US equivalent. We read Form 16 and your Annual Information Statement, split figures across US calendar years, and reconcile Indian tax paid against your US liability.

Cross-border handling is included in your 1040 fee — $75 single, $150 joint.

Documents we read

  • Form 16 salary certificates
  • Annual Information Statement (AIS) summaries
  • Indian bank interest and dividend statements in INR

The India-specific review

  • April-to-March figures allocated to the right US calendar years
  • TDS and advance tax both counted toward the foreign tax credit
  • INR conversions with documented exchange rates

Common questions

Do I report Indian bank accounts?
Foreign account reporting (FBAR) may apply when balances cross reporting thresholds. The intake asks the questions that determine what is required.
My employer withheld TDS — is that enough?
TDS counts as foreign tax paid for the US credit. We reconcile TDS plus any advance or self-assessment tax against your US liability.
