Hello,
I have some RSU (restricted stock units) but I didn't sell them. They "are" in the US.
Do I have to report them somewhere like a report of financial asset (while doing my tax return)?
Thanks

No need to report assets to the IRS. When you sell them you will file an income tax return to report the gain (or loss).

If you are taling about the FBAR or Form 8938, those RSU are NOT foreign financial assets, so they do NOT need to be reported.

Thanks for your answer.
They are U.S. RSU, I was wondering if a report of american assets existed such as the one for foreign assets (F8938).
Ebaines answered no so I think I'm OK.
Thanks
