What’s the difference between Tax Non-Residents and Tax Residents?
Tax Non-Resident: May take advantage of any applicable tax treaty benefits and exemption from U.S. Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid taxes. Tax Non-Residents generally only pay tax on U.S.- source income. You can complete your tax forms using the Sprintax Returns preparation software.
Tax Resident: Cannot take advantage of any tax treaty benefits or other possible tax exemptions available for Tax Non-Residents. Sprintax Returns is not able to process returns for Tax Residents. Tax Residents generally follow the same tax rules as U.S. citizens and pay taxes on worldwide income.
