Tax Question - R2I, Renting US Residence
Posted: Fri Oct 29, 2010 2:55 am
Hello Everyone
I am preparing to R2I and need advice on a particular situation. I am a USC working for a company in US. I have an opportunity to manage the APAC operations of my company by residing in India. My company does not have any entity or work in India, so primarily my family will be living there while I am travelling extensively in APAC. I will continue to be on US pay roll paying US Federal and state taxes during this period. Since I am not working for an Indian entity or for a customer in India and probably not going to be in India for more than 183 days, I expect not to be paying any taxes in India. I am planning to rent out my house in US during this assignment. My question is since I am renting out my primary residence, will that be an issue in going ahead with this plan. By renting out, I am losing the primary address and will that make me lose my residency status?
Appreciate your response
thanks
