Hello Community,
I have a tax client that moved here from New Zealand, and owns a rental property in that area. We have been reporting the income and property on schedule E. He now tells me that he is moving back to New Zealand and will no longer need my services after 2026. Do I just sell property off and recapture the depreciation as ordinary income? He will be filing a return for 2026, and then moving out of US.
Thank you for feedback,
Angela

No sale. No depreciation recapture. Enter sale date = date it stopped being rental. No sales price.
If he's a US citizen or resident alien he needs to continue to file US income tax returns.
The more I know the more I don’t know.
