Claiming worldwide income

[cryslarc1]

I was a 'deemed resident' because I was on a visa in Canada working from Jan-October, before moving back home. Am I required to report the small amount of income I made at the end of 2023 when I worked for the month of December only, back home?

I know people report what they earn before moving, but as my visa expired in October and I worked for one month at the end of the year does it matter if I don't report it?

Thank you

Not, if you were a dual status resident for the year, then you would only need to report the income you earned or received while a US Resident for tax purposes.  You would not need to report any income that you received when you were not a resident of the US that was not from a US source.
