Foreign citizen Purchasing property in USA

If a foreign citizen purchases property in USA under his/her own name & then rent it out or do a land contract and the tenant/buyer sends him a cheque which he deposits in his own country and pay taxes in his own country, how will he report it to IRS because he doesn't have a SSN or any tax #.

@Haseeb Awan There are significant US income tax consequences for foreign investors. You should absolutely speak to a CPA / attorney about your specific facts and circumstances.
