Italian Survivor Benefits

Forum|Forum|1 year ago

I will be receiving survivor benefits from my deceased Italian husband's INPS pension. The money will go directly to my US bank. There will be no US forms. How do I report this income? From what I understand, I am only liable to US taxes. Thanks.

As a US resident, the money is taxable here and you won't have a tax form so you will need to enter the income. There are a couple of ways to enter the income. The easiest - it seems - is:

Open your return to federal income
Select retirement income
IRA, 401k, 1099-R, start/ edit
Select I'll type it in myself
Continue
Select Form 1099-R
Continue
Enter information
1. select foreign address at the top
2. enter 99-9999000 for the Federal ID number
Continue entering information
Done

Reference: The US - Italy treaty article 19.
