My wife (Colombian) and I (USA) purchased a 'finca' near Pereira in Colombia last year. She has dual citizenship and I do not (again, USA).
Both our names are on the property. I'm not sure what she did, but she says she declared 50%....her half. I don't think this is correct...I don't have to declare any of the purchase in USA. I will if we collect rent, or other income, from it.
Anyone have experience with this? On what we need to do with the property declaration in Colombia? We make about $35us rent monthly on it, so we do declare that in both Colombia and USA.
I just don't know how she only declares 50%. Any ideas?
