Federal Benefits & Taxes

Taxes 

U.S. citizens, even those residing abroad, must file a federal tax return and report their worldwide income.

Tax forms

Each year, usually by early March, the Embassy receives a selection of federal (not state) tax forms and information booklets. You may pick up forms during our operating hours or send us a self-addressed stamped envelope to order forms by number and name.

You can also download the appropriate forms from the Internal Revenue Services-website or phone us in order for us to send you the necessary forms.
