Hi all.
Nobody answered this question here imo (as everyone considered if a person paying off money to your mortgage company, to pay off principal amount, is USA based).
My question is simple: let's say My father living in India (aka non-USA person) wants to send $100k worth of money as "Wire transfer" directly to my mortgage company (i.e. to their wire account) to pay off my home loan (providing my loan#, address, etc info ATTN: principal curtailment).
Do I have to report Taxes in USA, in this case?
-- I never got the money to my checking/saving account.
-- He is not in USA, Indian citizen.
THANKS
