* Moved from IR-1/CR-1 Progress Reports to Tax and Finances During US Immigration  *

 

Yes it must be reported. She probably won't owe taxes on it due to the FEIE and Foreign Tax Credit.

I hired an accountant for 2017 tax year to help me determine all that. We filed separately, and my wife filed part of the year as a non resident......but she had to report all her foreign income from the date she entered the US.. Then we had to file the FBAR and etc.........it was well worth letting our professional figure it all out and file all the forms.........

"The US immigration process requires a great deal of knowledge, planning, time, patience, and a significant amount of money.  It is quite a journey!"

Registered Nurse- Retired- I practiced in the areas of Labor & Delivery, Home Health, Adolescent Psych, & Adult Psych.

IT Professional- Retired- Web Site Design, Hardware Maintenance, Compound Pharmacy Software Trainer, On-site go live support, Database Manager, App Designer.

______________________________________

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..
