Foreign Income tax
hello everyone, we usually file our taxes together as a family but my husband (green card holder) gets contract jobs occasionally outside the US. does he have to always declare this whenever we file? if he doesn’t declare it, will he affect his naturalization?

I am not a lawyer. it is my understanding that as a permanent resident you have to report world income. consider hiring a CPA if things get complicated.

Foreign income questions on forums like Lawfully usually come down to the same core issue: US citizens are taxed on worldwide income no matter where they live, and the relief tools only work if you file the right forms. The Foreign Earned Income Exclusion can shield a chunk of foreign wages, but it doesn't cover investment income or self-employment tax, and the Foreign Tax Credit is often the better fit for high-tax countries. If the filing gets complicated and you want professional help, H&R Block customer service https://hr-block.pissedconsumer.com/customer-service.html is worth checking for their tax software support and expert options—though it's worth noting their customer reviews are mixed, so weighing that against the convenience is smart.
