Indian EPF taxed in USA

I have come to US in March 2018. I was employed in an Indian MNC since 2006 and switched to a US company in July 2023 after 17 years of service in the Indian MNC. 

 

At the time of my exit, I got EPF from my company, Gratuity, super annuation fund.  EPF has my contributions, my company contributions and the interest on the contributions. 

 

I want to understand how this will reported in US tax return and is there any income tax to be paid in USA. In India, all these incomes are exempted.
