What it is and how we handle it

Residential status decides what India can tax: NRIs and RNORs pay Indian tax only on Indian income, while ordinarily residents (ROR) are taxed on worldwide income and must disclose foreign assets. It is decided afresh every financial year, from your passport stamps and travel records.

Two exceptions catch many people. Indian citizens leaving for employment abroad are tested only on the 182-day rule in the year they leave. And the 120-day rule and deemed-residency rule — which apply when Indian income exceeds ₹15 lakh — make you RNOR rather than ROR.

For FY 2025-26 the tests are in section 6 of the 1961 Act; from tax year 2026-27 the Income-tax Act, 2025 carries the same framework under renumbered provisions. We count your days, apply the right tests and document the conclusion for your ITR and for banks.

FAQs

Common questions for NRI Residential Status Determination in Kentucky.

Search FAQs
6 results.
How many days can an NRI stay in India without becoming resident?
Generally under 182 days, provided the 60-day/365-day test isn't met; for citizens and PIOs with Indian income above ₹15 lakh, the 60-day limb is 120 days. Your history over the previous four years matters.
What is a deemed resident?
An Indian citizen whose Indian income exceeds ₹15 lakh and who is not liable to tax in any other country because of domicile or residence. Deemed residents are treated as RNOR.
Is residential status the same for FEMA and income tax?
No. FEMA uses a different test based on purpose and intention of stay; you can be an NRI under one law and not the other.
What is the time difference between Kentucky and India?
Most of Kentucky is on Eastern time, so it runs behind India by 9.5 hours in summer and 10.5 hours in winter. We work mostly over WhatsApp and email, so you don't need to match Indian office hours.
Can I get NRI Residential Status Determination done while living in Kentucky?
Yes. This is India-side work, so it is done online and you don't need to travel. If a document must be attested abroad, we tell you upfront whether a notary, a state apostille or an Indian consulate is needed.
Does Kentucky tax my Indian income?
Kentucky taxes residents' personal income, so a state return may apply as well as the federal one. US citizens and residents report worldwide income on the federal return, and a foreign tax credit can usually reduce double taxation. Your US preparer should confirm how this applies to you.
