Overview
What this filing actually covers
US citizens and green-card holders must file with the IRS every year, even if they live and earn entirely in India.
Indians with US income — rent, dividends, freelance payments, stock sales — usually owe a US return too, often with an ITIN.
FBAR (FinCEN Form 114) is separate from your tax return: aggregate foreign accounts above $10,000 must be reported.
The India-US tax treaty lets you claim credit for taxes paid in one country against the other — but only if both returns are done right.
The standard deadline is April 15, with an automatic extension to October 15 for filers living abroad.

If a founder or investor is outside India
Foreign ownership is possible in many sectors, but it adds document authentication, banking and FEMA work. Set the route before funds move.

- Confirm the Indian resident director arrangement
- Map ownership, beneficial ownership and pricing
- Allow time for apostilled or consularised documents
Plan for after setup
- Receive funds through permitted banking channels
- Complete RBI/FEMA reporting and keep the bank evidence
- Coordinate tax and ongoing compliance advice early

Yes. The US taxes citizens on worldwide income regardless of where they live. Filing is mandatory even if you owe nothing after treaty credits.
FBAR is a separate report of foreign financial accounts. If your combined balance across all non-US accounts crossed $10,000 at any point in the year, you likely need to file it.
Usually not. The India-US tax treaty lets you claim a credit for taxes paid in one country against what you owe the other. Getting both returns coordinated is the whole point.
The IRS has streamlined procedures for non-wilful late filers living abroad. We assess your situation and get you compliant without drama.
It depends on your last state of residence and its rules. Some states keep taxing former residents; others don't. We check yours specifically.
It depends on the complexity — number of income sources, states, and disclosures. Share your situation and we'll give you a clear quote before any work starts.
