dual national and capital gains

19 years ago
Hello

I understand how to handle dividend and interest received from the US on my french tax forms (tax is paid in the US, a credit is applied in France), but I am at a loss as to how to handle the capital gains bit.

According to art 13 of the convention, they are to be declared and paid in France according to local rules. What I am missing is how to handle it on the US side, how to declare them or not, if i have to pay the US cgs or not, and how to apply a credit for the french taxes and prelevement sociaux paid here.

Can anyone assist? I've scoured the IRS site and came up empty.

Thanks in advance
