Taxes: How to report foreign unearned income?
I am a US Resident Alien.
Where on my federal tax return do I report interest, dividends and capital gains from my bank and securities accounts in a foreign country?

I don’t know, but I would advise you to let a good tax prepraration firm do your taxes for you. It is their job to find all the loopholes and deductions you are due.
They are reported the same place your other dividend, interest, and capitol gains are reported, just handled a little differently. You need schedules B and C.
“Unearned”? You mean “earned” I think.
Otherwise, I second @WestRiverrat : See a tax prep firm like H&R Block. Once you’ve seen them do it this year, maybe then you can attempt it on your own next year. Considering Fluther is where you chose to pose this question, you are not prepared to handle this on your own.
