As tax season wraps up in the second week of April, it’s essential for owners of Delaware LLCs, Corporations, or Non-Profit Organizations to ensure their tax returns are filed correctly. At Delaware Agency, we assist thousands of non-residents in filing their taxes accurately. Filing a U.S. Non-Resident Tax Return can be complex, especially if you’re unfamiliar with forms like 1040NR, 1120, 5472, and other IRS requirements.
Even if you don’t have a U.S.-based company but have engaged in trade or business in the United States during the year, you’re required to file a tax return.
Forms Required for Non-Resident Aliens
•Form 1040NR: U.S. Nonresident Alien Income Tax Return
•Form 1040NR-EZ: U.S. Income Tax Return for Certain Nonresident Aliens With No Dependents (eligibility based on specific criteria found in the instructions for Form 1040NR-EZ).
If you cannot meet the tax return deadline, submit Form 4868 for an automatic extension. Ensure this is done by the regular due date of the return.
