Canadians in US on TN/TD status, reporting foreign accounts?

Post by emka »

Hi,
My husband and myself have been in US on TN/TD status since 2012.
Both of us still keep a Canadian RRSP accounts (his adding up to ~8000 CAD, mine adding up to ~11 000 CAD) and joint checking account with 2000 CAD left on it.

Do we have to report those accounts to IRS? If so, what are the exact requirements, forms to fill?

I would truly appreciate any info regarding that.
