@Carl
1) thx for the clarifications and sharing observations;
2) no, I am not a US citizen. However, I am interested in how taxation going on on a particular example with India/Germany property. Article 6 in tax treaties of those countries almost the same and statements there are clear. I even quoted it here. And what I am reading in tax treaties contradict to what I see in this thread. So I am trying to understand where the root cause of this difference.
And I am interested in whether any difference in taxation for US citizens and resident aliens regarding the foreign property.
So as for now, I see two options of taxation -
2.1) taxation foreign property as US property with all related calculations about deprecation, etc;
2.2) reporting like was mention by the link above. But by the link, it's related to US residents, not US citizens.
So I am still don't have a clear vision about it.
