Life Insurance Endowment Payments from India

Hello Tax Experts,

I would really appreciate your time and help with my tax situation.  

- I have been paying Insurance Premiums (post-tax) for an Insurance Policy in India from 2005 onwards. 

- After 20 years (starting this year), I have been received payments.

- I kind of paid around $20K towards premiums during the last 20 years.

- This year, I received around $1200 as Endowment payment.  I think, I will be receiving such payments yearly for next 10 or 20 years. 

- Just as an FYI - These payments are not taxable in India.

 

Questions:

- I assume I need to report this in my 2025 Tax return, where would I do that?

- Is the income taxable?  If yes - how can I factor-in the payments I made so far.

 

Thank you so much.

 

Regards
