    Taxes for a Resident who doesn't live in the U.S.
    What does a Resident Green-Card holder have to do about taxes if he is not living in the United States?

    Thank you,

    You are considered to be a resident alien and, therefore ALL of your world-wide income IS SUBJECT TO U.S. income taxes.

    That means you MUST file an income tax return.
