Yup. All Americans are taxed on their worldwide income.

There is a published exchange rate that is an average rate
for the entire year, apropriate in cases where income is
received at roughly even intervals through the year. For
2004, divide the Canadian dollar total by $1.301 to get US
dollars.

Default Foreign bank account

Due to the death of my mother in law, my wife has money in
canadian accounts. Do I need to declare the interest? How do
I figure the exchange?
