Federal and State Withholdings - Non-U.S. Tax Residents
Foreign National Employees are considered non-residents for tax purposes unless they meet either the green card test or the substantial presence test for the calendar year January 1-December 31. Employees can have both statuses in the same year depending on when they arrive in or exit from the U.S.
If you have been notified by the International Tax team that you are considered a nonresident for U.S. tax purposes, different tax withholding and reporting requirements may apply to you. Please review the forms and instructions provided in this section and follow the guidance from the International Tax team when completing your tax documents.
The forms listed are for employees who are nonresidents for U.S. tax purposes, also referred to as nonresident aliens. These forms should not be used by U.S. citizens, permanent residents, or individuals who are resident aliens for U.S. tax purposes.
Foreign national employees should contact International Tax Team before submitting tax withholding forms to confirm their U.S. tax residency status, applicable withholding forms, and any available tax treaty benefits. These forms should be submitted through the FNIS Dropbox.
