| I had a client that was a UK citezen, but for the last two years has been residing in the US. He's been working in the US and will file his second tax return this year. He owns UK property that is rental property. Would it be reported on Schedule E and reduce or increase income as if it were property in the US??? What code section relates to this? | |
