Frequently asked questions
A “nonresident alien” is a non-US citizen without a Green Card or qualifying for the “substantial presence test.” Commonly, these are students from abroad who are studying in the US on a student visa, for example. Seasonal workers, visiting professors, visiting business people, and so on may also fall under the nonresident alien status.
If you don’t file your 1040-NR form on time (and haven’t applied for an extension), you risk getting fines or penalties from the IRS.
If you are an employee and you receive wages subject to US income tax withholding, or you have an office or place of business in the United States, you must generally file by the 15th day of the 4th month after your tax year ends. For a person filing using a calendar year this is generally April 15.
If you are not an employee or self-employed person who receives wages or non-employee compensation subject to US income tax withholding, or if you do not have an office or place of business in the United States, you must file by the 15th day of the 6th month after your tax year ends. For a person filing using a calendar year this is generally June 15.
