Taxes on getting back money you loaned
I'll be lending to someone in the family outside of US(I am a US citizen living in US). The amount is reasonably large. The person is going to return me the money in chunks of $5000 each. I don't need advice on whether I should lend it or not, but I am trying to find out if I'll be taxed on money which is from my saving (after paying taxes - I am a salaried person) and I am just lending it, when I get back. I'll be earning $0 in interest. He will simply return me what I lend him. No more, no less.
