You pay ordinary income tax at vesting, pay ordinary income tax if selling before a year on the difference between selling and vesting, and you pay capital gains tax on the difference if selling after more than a year.My employer as awarded me RSUs. If I understand correctly, I pay ordinary income tax on the value at vesting, right? Then I also have to pay capital gains on sale which will be ordinary income rates because I'm selling in less than a year.
