Taxes on World Wide Income
U.S. Permanent Residents (green card holders) as well as U.S. Citizens must report each year their income earned anywhere in the world. That means your U.S. income tax return must include:
Foreign dividends
Rental Income Earned Abroad
Foreign pension income
Foreign capital gains or losses on stocks, bonds, real estate
Foreign royalties
All other foreign income

Yeah, but if you file a tax return, you know that all it does is list the amount you rec’d in that year. What good is that info?
