Dear All,

I am an International student in my F1 visa. Please be noted that I file my tax as a US citizen since tax year 2007.

I have 2 mutual funds from the same mutual fund company. I made about $0.75 and $1.55, respectively, from the 2 funds in 2008. The mutual fund company did not send me any tax document as my earnings is less than $10 combined.

Question: Do I need to report the income on my tax form?

Thank you very much!

Regards,
Piggley

You CAN report it if you want to, but it is NOT required, as the resultant income is only $3, which likely will NOT affect your tax owed.
