In the United States, there are different rules for filing taxes for residents and citizens. Some tax filers who are non-citizens are exempt from disclosing certain income types.
Taxation for Nonresident Individual Income
Non-resident individuals are taxed on their income earned through U.S. business or trade. Such individuals are exempted from paying tax on income earned on foreign business. Furthermore, investment income acquired in the U.S. source is taxed at 30% unless otherwise stated in the treaty. It’s essential that you keep proper records of all your income sources so that the IRS can comprehend what income is exempt from taxes.
