Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@Stonre007 you report all interest income ( foreign and domestic ) the same way . You just TurboTax that you interest income to report ( in case of domestic ones you usually would have a 1099-INT )-- and then follow through with the questions and answers. Also note for Foreign financial institutions you will not have a EIN or such identification number -- so just use the name of the institution etc.
Also note that because you are dealing with foreign financial / banks you may come under two other reporting requirements --- (a) FBAR -- form 114 , fill out online at BSA efiling.gov or FinCen. gov if the aggregate amounts in that institution at anytime in the year rose to equal or over US$10,000 ; and (b) FATCA --- form 8938 along with your return if the amounts totaled anywhere from US$90,000 or more depending on your filing status and whether you are located in the USA or abroad. Note that none of these reporting result in any tax but ignoring the requirement to report can attract onerous penlties.
Is there more I can do for you ?
