I received a 1099-MISC for employment performed abroad and I'm also not a US citizen even though I live there for most of the year. What should I do to report this income or should I do nothing?


ANSWER


Expert Wray Rives's Answer:

 Even though you are not a US citizen if you are a US resident for the majority of the year, you must file a tax return and report all of your worldwide income, so yes you would need to report the income from the 1099.
