Form 1040-NR for non-residents with US income

If you’re not a US resident for tax purposes but have US income, you may need to file Form 1040-NR. We prepare it, apply any treaty benefits you qualify for and handle the ITIN if you don’t have one.

  • For non-resident individuals
  • Treaty benefits considered
Who files

When a non-resident has to file

Non-residents are generally taxed only on US-source income. You may need to file if you had income connected with a US trade or business, US wages, or other US income that wasn’t fully taxed through withholding.

Owners of some US business structures, such as partners in a partnership, may also have to file personally.
