The type and rule above prints on all proofs including departmental reproduction proofs. MUST be removed before printing.

2005

Department of the Treasury
Internal Revenue Service

Instructions for
Form 1040NR
U.S. Nonresident Alien Income Tax Return

General Instructions
Section references are to the Internal
Revenue Code unless otherwise noted.
For details on these and other

TIP changes for 2005 and 2006, see
Pub. 553. Pending legislation
may eliminate one or more of the last
four changes listed under What’s New
for 2006.

What’s New for 2005
Qualifying child — New definition. A
new definition of a “qualifying child”
applies for each of the following tax
benefits.
• Dependency exemption.
• Child tax credits.
• Credit for child and dependent care
expenses.
See the instructions for each of these
benefits for more details.
Foster child — New rules. New rules
apply to determine who is a foster child
and when a foster child can be used to
claim certain tax benefits. To claim a
foster child as a qualifying child for any
of the tax benefits listed above, the
child must be placed with you by an
authorized placement agency or by
judgment, decree, or other order of any
court of competent jurisdiction. A foster
child no longer qualifies you to use
qualifying widow(er) filing status.
Dependents cannot claim
exemptions for dependents. If you
can be claimed as a dependent on
someone else’s return, you cannot
claim any exemptions for dependents.
Hurricane tax relief. Emergency tax
relief was enacted as a result of
Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, and Wilma.
The tax benefits provided by this relief
include the following.
• Suspended limits for certain personal
casualty losses and cash contributions.
• An additional exemption amount if
you provided housing for a person
displaced by Hurricane Katrina.
• Election to use your 2004 earned
income to figure your additional child
tax credit.
• Increased charitable standard
mileage rate for using your vehicle for

volunteer work related to Hurricane
Katrina.
• Special rules for time and support
tests for people who were temporarily
relocated because of Hurricanes
Katrina, Rita, and Wilma.
• Special rules for withdrawals and
loans from IRAs and other qualified
retirement plans.

Domestic production activities
deduction. You may be able to deduct
up to 3% of your qualified production
activities income from certain business
activities. See the instructions for line
33 on page 16.
Certain deductions reordered. The
lines in the Adjusted Gross Income
section have been reordered to simplify
the computation of modified adjusted
gross income (AGI) limits.
IRA deduction expanded. You may
be able to deduct up to $4,000 ($4,500
if age 50 or older at the end of 2005). If
you were covered by a retirement plan,
you may be able to take an IRA
deduction if your 2005 modified AGI is
less than $60,000 ($80,000 if qualifying
widow(er)).
Residents of Japan. Beginning in
2005, nonresident aliens who are
residents of Japan generally cannot
claim the following benefits. This is
because the new U.S.-Japan income
tax treaty, which became effective on
January 1, 2005, does not allow them.
• Exemptions for spouse and
dependents.
• Qualifying widow(er) filing status.
• Single filing status for people who are
married, have a child, and do not live
with their spouse.
However, if you elect to have the old
U.S.-Japan income tax treaty apply in
its entirety for 2005, you may be able to
claim these benefits on your 2005 Form
1040NR.
Certain dividends from a mutual
fund. Interest-related dividends you
receive from a mutual fund are
excluded from income if the dividends
Cat. No. 11368V

are not effectively connected with your
U.S. trade or business. The exclusion
also applies to short-term capital gain
dividends from a mutual fund if you are
present in the United States for less
than 183 days during the tax year.
U.S. source dividends paid by
certain foreign corporations. U.S.
source dividends paid by certain foreign
corporations are excluded from income
if they are not effectively connected
with the nonresident alien’s U.S. trade
or business. See Second exception
under Dividends in Pub. 519, chapter 2
for a definition of foreign corporation
and how to figure the amount of
excludable dividends.
Standard mileage rates. The 2005
rate for business use of your vehicle is
401/2 cents a mile (481/2 cents a mile
after August 31, 2005). The 2005 rate
for use of your vehicle to move is 15
cents a mile (22 cents a mile after
August 31, 2005).
Elective salary deferrals. The
maximum amount you can defer under
all plans is generally limited to $14,000
($10,000 if you only have SIMPLE
plans; $17,000 for section 403(b) plans
if you qualify for the 15-year rule). The
catch-up contribution limit is increased
to $4,000 ($2,000 for SIMPLE plans).

What’s New for 2006
New exception from the filing
requirement for nonresident alien
individuals. Generally, the
requirement to file a return has been
eliminated for nonresident aliens who
earn wages effectively connected with a
U.S. trade or business that are less
than the amount of one personal
exemption ($3,300 for 2006). For more
information, see Notice 2005-77,
2005-46 I.R.B. 951. You can find Notice
2005-77 on page 951 of Internal
Revenue Bulletin 2005-46 at

to have qualified energy saving items
installed in your main home.
Alternative motor vehicles. You may
be able to take a credit if you place an
energy efficient motor vehicle or
alternative fuel vehicle refueling
property in service in 2006. You can no
longer take a deduction for clean-fuel
vehicles or refueling property.
IRA deduction expanded. If you were
covered by a retirement plan, you may
be able to take an IRA deduction if your
2006 modified AGI is less than $85,000
if qualifying widow(er). If you are age
50 or over, the amount of your catch-up
contribution will increase to $1,000.
Standard mileage rates. The 2006
rate for business use of your vehicle is
441/2 cents a mile. The 2006 rate for
use of your vehicle to move is 18 cents
a mile. The 2006 rate for charitable use
of your vehicle to provide relief related
to Hurricane Katrina is 32 cents a mile.
The 2006 rate of 14 cents a mile for
other charitable use is unchanged.
Certain credits no longer allowed
against alternative minimum tax
(AMT). The credit for child and
dependent care expenses, mortgage
interest credit, and carryforwards of the
District of Columbia first-time
homebuyer credit are no longer allowed
against AMT and a new tax liability limit
applies. For most people, this limit is
your regular tax minus any tentative
minimum tax.
AMT exemption amount decreased.
The AMT exemption amount will
decrease to $33,750 ($45,000 if a
qualifying widow(er); $22,500 if married
filing separately).
Educator expense deduction
expires. The deduction for educator
expenses from AGI will expire.
District of Columbia first-time
homebuyer credit expires. This credit
will not apply to homes purchased after
December 31, 2005.

Items to Note
Form 1040NR-EZ. You may be able to
use Form 1040NR-EZ if your only
income from U.S. sources is wages,
salaries, tips, taxable refunds of state
and local income taxes, and
scholarship or fellowship grants. For
more details, see Form 1040NR-EZ
and its instructions.
Former U.S. citizens and former U.S.
long-term residents. If you renounced
your U.S. citizenship or terminated your
long-term resident status after June 3,
2004, you will continue to be treated for
federal tax purposes as a citizen or
long-term resident of the United States
until you (a) give notice of your
expatriating act or termination of
residency (with the requisite intent to

relinquish citizenship or terminate such
status) to the Department of State or
the Department of Homeland Security,
and (b) provide an initial expatriation
statement (Form 8854) to the IRS.
Additionally, if you are subject to the
expatriation tax rules of section 877(a),
you are required to file an annual
expatriation information statement
(Form 8854) with the IRS for 10 taxable
years after the date of your
expatriation. For more details, see
Special Rules for Former U.S. Citizens
and Former U.S. Long-term Residents
that begins on page 6 and Pub. 519,
U.S. Tax Guide for Aliens.
Other reporting requirements. If you
meet the closer connection to a foreign
country exception to the substantial
presence test, you must file
Form 8840. If you exclude days of
presence in the United States for
purposes of the substantial presence
test, you must file Form 8843. This rule
does not apply to foreign-governmentrelated individuals who exclude days of
presence in the United States. Certain
dual-resident taxpayers who claim tax
treaty benefits must file Form 8833. A
dual-resident taxpayer is one who is a
resident of both the United States and
another country under each country’s
tax laws.

Resident Alien or
Nonresident Alien
If you are not a citizen of the United
States, specific rules apply to determine
if you are a resident alien or a
nonresident alien for tax purposes.
Generally, you are considered a

-2-

resident alien if you meet either the
green card test or the substantial
presence test for 2005. (These tests
are explained below.) Even if you do
not meet either of these tests, you may
be able to choose to be treated as a
U.S. resident for part of 2005. See
First-Year Choice in Pub. 519 for
details.
You are generally considered a
nonresident alien for the year if you are
not a U.S. resident under either of
these tests. However, even if you are a
U.S. resident under one of these tests,
you may still be considered a
nonresident alien if you qualify as a
resident of a treaty country within the
meaning of the tax treaty between the
United States and that country. You
can download the complete text of most
U.S. tax treaties at www.irs.gov.
Technical explanations for many of
those treaties are also available at that
site.
For more details on resident and
nonresident status, the tests for
residence, and the exceptions to them,
see Pub. 519.

Green Card Test
You are a resident for tax purposes if
you were a lawful permanent resident
(immigrant) of the United States at any
time during 2005.

Substantial Presence Test
You are considered a U.S. resident if
you meet the substantial presence test
for 2005. You meet this test if you were
physically present in the United States
for at least:
1. 31 days during 2005, and
2. 183 days during the period 2005,
2004, and 2003, counting all the days
of physical presence in 2005, but only
1/3 the number of days of presence in
2004 and only 1/6 the number of days in
2003.
Generally, you are treated as
present in the United States on any day
that you are physically present in the
country at any time during the day.
However, there are exceptions to this
rule. In general, do not count the
following as days of presence in the
United States for the substantial
presence test.
• Days you commute to work in the
United States from a residence in
Canada or Mexico if you regularly
commute from Canada or Mexico.
• Days you are in the United States for
less than 24 hours when you are in
transit between two places outside of
the United States.
• Days you are in the United States as
a crew member of a foreign vessel.
• Days you intend, but are unable, to
leave the United States because of a

medical condition that arose while you
were in the United States.
• Days you are an exempt individual
(defined below).
Exempt individual. For these
purposes, an exempt individual is
generally an individual who is a:
• Foreign-government-related
individual,
• Teacher or trainee,
• Student, or
• Professional athlete who is
temporarily in the United States to
compete in a charitable sports event.
Note. Alien individuals with “Q” visas
are treated as either students, teachers,
or trainees and, as such, are exempt
individuals for purposes of the
substantial presence test if they
otherwise qualify. “Q” visas are issued
to aliens participating in certain
international cultural exchange
programs.
See Pub. 519 for more details
regarding days of presence in the
United States for the substantial
presence test.

Closer Connection to Foreign
Country
Even though you would otherwise meet
the substantial presence test, you can
be treated as a nonresident alien if you:
• Were present in the United States for
fewer than 183 days during 2005,
• Establish that during 2005 you had a
tax home in a foreign country, and
• Establish that during 2005 you had a
closer connection to one foreign
country in which you had a tax home
than to the United States unless you
had a closer connection to two foreign
countries.
See Pub. 519 for more information.

Who Must File
File Form 1040NR if any of the
following four conditions applies to you.
1. You were a nonresident alien
engaged in a trade or business in the
United States during 2005. You must
file even if:
a. None of your income came from
a trade or business conducted in the
United States,
b. You have no U.S. source income,
or
c. Your income is exempt from U.S.
tax.
However, if you have no gross
income for 2005, do not complete the
schedules for Form 1040NR. Instead,
attach a list of the kinds of exclusions
you claim and the amount of each.
Exception. If you were a
nonresident alien student, teacher, or
trainee who was temporarily present in
the United States under an “F,” “J,” “M,”
or “Q” visa, you must file Form 1040NR
Instructions for Form 1040NR

(or Form 1040NR-EZ) only if you have
income that is subject to tax under
section 871 (that is, the income items
listed on lines 8 through 21 on page 1
of Form 1040NR and on lines 75a
through 84 on page 4 of
Form 1040NR).
2. You were a nonresident alien not
engaged in a trade or business in the
United States during 2005 and:
a. You received income from U.S.
sources that is reportable on lines 75a
through 84, and
b. Not all of the U.S. tax that you
owe was withheld from that income.
3. You represent a deceased
person who would have had to file
Form 1040NR.
4. You represent an estate or trust
that has to file Form 1040NR.
Exception for children under age 14.
If your child was under age 14 at the
end of 2005, had income only from
interest and dividends that are
effectively connected with a U.S. trade
or business, and that income totaled
less than $8,000, you may be able to
elect to report your child’s income on
your return. But you must use Form
8814 to do so. If you make this election,
your child does not have to file a return.
For details, see Form 8814.
A child born on January 1,
1992, is considered to be age
CAUTION 14 at the end of 2005. Do not
use Form 8814 for such a child.
Filing a deceased person’s return.
The personal representative must file
the return for a deceased person who
was required to file a return for 2005. A
personal representative can be an
executor, administrator, or anyone who
is in charge of the deceased person’s
property.
Filing for an estate or trust. If you are
filing Form 1040NR for a nonresident
alien estate or trust, change the form to
reflect the provisions of Subchapter J,
Chapter 1, of the Internal Revenue
Code. You may find it helpful to refer to
Form 1041 and its instructions.
Former U.S. citizens and former U.S.
long-term residents. If you renounced
your U.S. citizenship or terminated your
long-term resident status after June 3,
2004, you are required to (a) file Form
8854, and (b) notify the Department of
State or the Department of Homeland
Security (see the Instructions to Form
8854).
If you fail to do so, you are still
treated as a citizen or resident of the
United States, and you must report
your worldwide taxable income on Form
1040, 1040A, or 1040EZ, and figure
your tax as shown in the instructions for
those forms. You can only file Form
1040NR and figure your tax as a
nonresident alien for the portion of the

!

-3-

year after you have satisfied both of the
requirements above. For more details,
see Special Rules for Former U.S.
Citizens and Former U.S. Long-term
Residents that begins on page 6 and
Pub. 519.

Simplified Procedure for
Claiming Certain Refunds
You can use this procedure only if you
meet all of the following conditions for
the tax year.
• You were a nonresident alien.
• You were not engaged in a trade or
business in the United States at any
time.
• You had no income that was
effectively connected with the conduct
of a U.S. trade or business.
• Your U.S. income tax liability was
fully satisfied through withholding of tax
at source.
• You are filing Form 1040NR solely to
claim a refund of U.S. tax withheld at
source.
Example. John is a nonresident
alien individual. The only U.S. source
income he received during the year was
dividend income from U.S. stocks. The
dividend income was reported to him on
Form(s) 1042-S. On one of the dividend
payments, the withholding agent
incorrectly withheld at a rate of 30%
(instead of 15%). John is eligible to use
the simplified procedure.
If you meet all of the conditions listed
earlier for the tax year, complete Form
1040NR as follows.
Page 1. Enter your name, identifying
number (defined on page 8), country of
citizenship, and all address information
requested at the top of page 1. Leave
the rest of page 1 blank.
Page 4, lines 75a through 84. Enter
the amounts of gross income you
received from dividends, interest,
royalties, pensions, annuities, and other
income. If any income you received
was subject to backup withholding or
withholding at source, you must include
all gross income of that type that you
received. The amount of each type of
income should be shown in the column
under the appropriate U.S. tax rate, if
any, that applies to that type of income
in your particular circumstances.
If you are entitled to a reduced rate
of, or exemption from, withholding on
the income pursuant to a tax treaty, the
applicable rate of U.S. tax is the same
as the treaty rate. Use column (e) if the
applicable tax rate is 0%.
Example. Mary is a nonresident
alien individual. The only U.S. source
income she received during the year
was as follows.
• 4 dividend payments.
• 12 interest payments.

Page 4 of 45

Instructions for Form 1040NR

17:35 - 9-FEB-2006

The type and rule above prints on all proofs including departmental reproduction proofs. MUST be removed before printing.

All payments were reported to Mary
on Form(s) 1042-S. On one of the
dividend payments, the withholding
agent incorrectly withheld at a rate of
30% (instead of 15%). There were no
other withholding discrepancies. Mary
must report all four dividend payments.
She is not required to report any of the
interest payments.
Note. Payments of gross proceeds
from the sale of securities or regulated
futures contracts are generally exempt
from U.S. tax. If you received such
payments and they were subjected to
backup withholding, specify the type of
payment on line 84 and show the
amount in column (e).
Line 85. Enter the total amount of
U.S. tax withheld at source (and not
refunded by the payer or withholding
agent) for the income you included on
lines 75a through 84.
Lines 86 through 88. Complete
these lines as instructed on the form.
Page 5. You must answer all questions
that apply. For item M, you must
identify the income tax treaty and treaty
article(s) under which you are applying
for a refund of tax. Also, enter the type
of income (for example, dividends,
royalties) and amount in the appropriate
space. You must provide the
information required for each type of
income for which a treaty claim is
made.
Note. If you are claiming a reduced
rate of, or exemption from, tax based
on a tax treaty, you must generally be a
resident of the particular treaty country
within the meaning of the treaty and
you cannot have a permanent
establishment or fixed base in the
United States.
Page 2, lines 53 and 58. Enter your
total income tax liability.
Lines 66 and 69. Enter the total
amount of U.S. tax withheld (from
line 85).
Lines 70 and 71a. Enter the
difference between line 58 and line 69.
This is your total refund.
Signature. You must sign and date
your tax return. See Reminders on
page 28.
Documentation. You must attach
acceptable proof of the withholding for
which you are claiming a refund. If you
are claiming a refund of backup
withholding tax based on your status as
a nonresident alien, you must attach a
copy of the Form 1099 that shows the
income and the amount of backup
withholding. If you are claiming a refund
of U.S. tax withheld at source, you must
attach a copy of the Form 1042-S that
shows the income and the amount of
U.S. tax withheld.

Additional Information
Portfolio interest. If you are claiming
a refund of U.S. tax withheld from
portfolio interest, include a description
of the relevant debt obligation, including
the name of the issuer, CUSIP number
(if any), interest rate, and the date the
debt was issued.
Withholding on distributions. If you
are claiming an exemption from
withholding on a distribution from a U.S.
corporation with respect to its stock
because the corporation had insufficient
earnings and profits to support ordinary
income treatment, you must attach a
statement that identifies the distributing
corporation and provides the basis for
the claim.
If you are claiming an exemption
from withholding on a distribution from
a mutual fund or real estate investment
trust (REIT) with respect to its stock
because the distribution was
designated as long-term capital gain or
a nondividend distribution, you must
attach a statement that identifies the
mutual fund or REIT and provides the
basis for the claim.
If you are claiming an exemption
from withholding on a distribution from
a U.S. corporation with respect to its
stock because, in your particular
circumstances, the transaction qualifies
as a redemption of stock under
section 302, you must attach a
statement that describes the
transaction and presents the facts
necessary to establish that the payment
was (a) a complete redemption, (b) a
disproportionate redemption, or (c) not
essentially equivalent to a dividend.

When To File
Individuals. If you were an employee
and received wages subject to U.S.
income tax withholding, file Form
1040NR by the 15th day of the 4th

Dual-Status Taxpayers
Note. If you elect to be taxed as a
resident alien (discussed earlier), the
special instructions and restrictions
discussed here do not apply.

Dual-Status Tax Year
A dual-status year is one in which you
change status between nonresident
and resident alien. Different U.S.
income tax rules apply to each status.
Most dual-status years are the years
of arrival or departure. Before you
arrive in the United States, you are a
nonresident alien. After you arrive, you
may or may not be a resident,
depending on the circumstances.
If you become a U.S. resident, you
stay a resident until you leave the
United States. You may become a
nonresident alien when you leave, if,
after leaving (or after your last day of
lawful permanent residency if you met
the green card test) and for the
remainder of the calendar year of your
departure, you have a closer
connection to a foreign country than to
the United States, and, during the next
calendar year, you are not a U.S.
resident under either the green card
test or the substantial presence test.
See Pub. 519.

What and Where to File for a
Dual-Status Year
If you were a U.S. resident on the last
day of the tax year, file Form 1040.
Enter “Dual-Status Return” across the
top and attach a statement showing
your income for the part of the year you
were a nonresident. You can use Form
1040NR as the statement; enter
“Dual-Status Statement” across the top.
File your return and statement with the
Internal Revenue Service Center,
Philadelphia, PA 19255, U.S.A.
If you were a nonresident on the last
day of the tax year, file Form 1040NR.
Instructions for Form 1040NR

Enter “Dual-Status Return” across the
top and attach a statement showing
your income for the part of the year you
were a U.S. resident. You may use
Form 1040 as the statement; enter
“Dual-Status Statement” across the top.
File your return and statement with the
Internal Revenue Service Center,
Philadelphia, PA 19255, U.S.A.
Statements. Any statement you file
with your return must show your name,
address, and identifying number
(defined on page 8).
Former U.S. long-term residents are
required to file Form 8854 with their
dual-status return for the last year of
U.S. residency. To determine if you are
a former U.S. long-term resident, see
the instructions that begin on page 6.

Income Subject to Tax for
Dual-Status Year
As a dual-status taxpayer not filing a
joint return, you are taxed on income
from all sources for the part of the year
you were a resident alien. Generally,
you are taxed on income only from U.S.
sources for the part of the year you
were a nonresident alien. However, all
income effectively connected with the
conduct of a trade or business in the
United States is taxable.
Income you received as a
dual-status taxpayer from sources
outside the United States while a
resident alien is taxable even if you
became a nonresident alien after
receiving it and before the close of the
tax year. Conversely, income you
received from sources outside the
United States while a nonresident alien
is not taxable in most cases even if you
became a resident alien after receiving
it and before the close of the tax year.
Income from U.S. sources is taxable
whether you received it while a
nonresident alien or a resident alien.

Restrictions for Dual-Status
Taxpayers
Standard deduction. You cannot take
the standard deduction.
Head of household. You cannot use
the Head of household Tax Table
column or Section D of the Tax
Computation Worksheet.
Joint return. You cannot file a joint
return unless you elect to be taxed as a
resident alien (see the instructions that
begin on page 4) in lieu of these
dual-status taxpayer rules.
Tax rates. If you were married and a
nonresident of the United States for all
or part of the tax year and you do not
make the election to be taxed as a
resident alien as discussed earlier, you
must use the Married filing separately
column in the Tax Table or Section C of
the Tax Computation Worksheet to

-5-

figure your tax on income effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or
business. If married, you cannot use
the Single Tax Table column or Section
A of the Tax Computation Worksheet.
Deduction for exemptions. As a
dual-status taxpayer, you usually will be
entitled to your own personal
exemption. Subject to the general rules
for qualification, you are allowed
exemptions for your spouse and
dependents in figuring taxable income
for the part of the year you were a
resident alien. The amount you can
claim for these exemptions is limited to
your taxable income (determined
without regard to exemptions) for the
part of the year you were a resident
alien. You cannot use exemptions
(other than your own) to reduce taxable
income to below zero for that period.
Special rules apply for exemptions
for the part of the tax year a dual-status
taxpayer is a nonresident alien if the
taxpayer is a resident of Canada,
Mexico, the Republic of Korea (South
Korea), or Japan (and you elect to have
the old U.S.-Japan income tax treaty
apply in its entirety for 2005); a U.S.
national; or a student or business
apprentice from India. See Pub. 519.
Tax credits. You cannot take the
earned income credit, the credit for the
elderly or disabled, or an education
credit unless you elect to be taxed as a
resident alien (see the instructions that
begin on page 4) in lieu of these
dual-status taxpayer rules. For
information on other credits, see
chapter 6 of Pub. 519.

How To Figure Tax for
Dual-Status Year
When you figure your U.S. tax for a
dual-status year, you are subject to
different rules for the part of the year
you were a resident and the part of the
year you were a nonresident.
All income for the period of
residence and all income that is
effectively connected with a trade or
business in the United States for the
period of nonresidence, after allowable
deductions, is combined and taxed at
the same rates that apply to U.S.
citizens and residents. Income that is
not effectively connected with a trade or
business in the United States for the
period of nonresidence is subject to the
flat 30% rate or lower treaty rate. No
deductions are allowed against this
income.
If you were a resident alien on the
last day of the tax year and you are
filing Form 1040, include the tax on the
noneffectively connected income in the
total on Form 1040, line 63. To the left
of line 63 enter “Tax from Form
1040NR” and the amount.

How To Report Income
on Form 1040NR
Community Income
If either you or your spouse (or both
you and your spouse) were nonresident
aliens at any time during the tax year
and you had community income during
the year, treat the community income
according to the applicable community
property laws except as follows.
• Earned income of a spouse, other
than trade or business income or
partnership distributive share income.
The spouse whose services produced
the income must report it on his or her
separate return.
• Trade or business income, other than
partnership distributive share income.

Treat this income as received by the
spouse carrying on the trade or
business and report it on that spouse’s
return.
• Partnership distributive share income
(or loss). Treat this income (or loss) as
received by the spouse who is the
partner and report it on that spouse’s
return.
• Income derived from the separate
property of one spouse that is not
earned income, trade or business
income, or partnership distributive
share income. The spouse with the
separate property must report this
income on his or her separate return.
See Pub. 555 for more details.

Kinds of Income
You must divide your income for the tax
year into the following three categories.
1. Income effectively connected with
a U.S. trade or business. This income
is taxed at the same rates that apply to
U.S. citizens and residents. Report this
income on page 1 of Form 1040NR.
Pub. 519 describes this income in
greater detail.
2. U.S. income not effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or
business. This income is taxed at 30%
unless a treaty between your country
and the United States has set a lower
rate that applies to you. Report this
income on page 4 of Form 1040NR.
Pub. 519 describes this income more
fully.
Note. Use line 56 to report the 4% tax
on U.S. source gross transportation
income.
3. Income exempt from U.S. tax.
Complete items L and/or M on page 5
of Form 1040NR and, if applicable,
line 22 on page 1.

Dispositions of U.S. Real
Property Interests
Gain or loss on the disposition of a U.S.
real property interest (see Pub. 519 for
definition) is taxed as if the gain or loss
were effectively connected with the
conduct of a U.S. trade or business.
See section 897 and its regulations.
Report gains and losses on the
disposition of U.S. real property
interests on Schedule D (Form 1040)
and Form 1040NR, line 14. Also, net
gains may be subject to the alternative
minimum tax. See the instructions for
line 42.

Income You May Elect To
Treat as Effectively
Connected With a U.S. Trade
or Business
You can elect to treat some items of
income as effectively connected with a
U.S. trade or business. The election

-6-

applies to all income from real property
located in the United States and held
for the production of income and to all
income from any interest in such
property. This includes:
• Gains from the sale or exchange of
such property or an interest therein.
• Gains on the disposal of timber, coal,
or iron ore with a retained economic
interest.
• Rents and royalties from mines, oil or
gas wells, or other natural resources.
The election does not apply to
dispositions of U.S. real property
interests discussed earlier.
To make the election, attach a
statement to your return for the year of
the election. Include in your statement:
1. That you are making the election.
2. A complete list of all of your real
property, or any interest in real
property, located in the United States
(including location). Give the legal
identification of U.S. timber, coal, or
iron ore in which you have an interest.
3. The extent of your ownership in
the real property.
4. A description of any substantial
improvements to the property.
5. Your income from the property.
6. The dates you owned the
property.
7. Whether the election is under
section 871(d) or a tax treaty.
8. Details of any previous elections
and revocations of the real property
election.

Foreign Income Taxed by the
United States
You may be required to report some
income from foreign sources on your
U.S. return if it is effectively connected
with a U.S. trade or business. For this
foreign income to be treated as
effectively connected with a U.S. trade
or business, you must have an office or
other fixed place of business in the
United States to which the income can
be attributed. For more information,
including a list of the types of foreign
source income that must be treated as
effectively connected with a U.S. trade
or business, see Pub. 519.

Special Rules for Former
U.S. Citizens and Former
U.S. Long-Term
Residents
Expatriation Tax
The expatriation tax provisions provide
an alternative tax regime for certain
nonresident aliens who lost U.S.
citizenship or terminated U.S. long-term
resident status. In 2004 the expatriation
rules changed. If you expatriated on or

before June 3, 2004, one set of rules
applies. If you expatriated after June 3,
2004, another set of rules applies. See
the rules on this page that apply to you.
Former U.S. long-term resident
defined. You are a former U.S.
long-term resident if you were a lawful
permanent resident of the United States
in at least 8 of the last 15 consecutive
tax years ending with the year your
residency ends. In determining if you
meet the 8-year requirement, do not
count any year that you were treated as
a resident of another country under a
tax treaty and you did not waive treaty
benefits.

Expatriation Before June 4,
2004
The alternative tax regime will apply to
you for the 10 succeeding tax years
following your action if one of the
principal purposes of your action was to
avoid U.S. taxes. You are considered to
have tax avoidance as a principal
purpose if:
1. Your average annual net income
tax for the last 5 tax years ending
before the date of your action to
relinquish your citizenship or terminate
your residency was more than
$100,000, or
2. Your net worth on the date of
your action was $500,000 or more.
The amounts above are adjusted for
inflation if your expatriation action is
after 1996 (see the chart on this page).
Although there are exceptions to
these rules, you will qualify for an
exception only if you are eligible to
submit a ruling request to the IRS that
your renunciation of U.S. citizenship or
termination of U.S. residency did not
have as one of its principal purposes
the avoidance of U.S. tax and you
submit such a ruling request in a
complete and good faith manner. For
more details about these exceptions,
see Notice 97-19, 1997-1 C.B. 394; and
Notice 98-34, 1998-2 C.B. 29. You can
find
Notice 97-19 on page 40 of Internal
Revenue Bulletin 1997-10 at
www.irs.gov/pub/irs-irbs/irb97-10.pdf.
You can find Notice 98-34 on page 30
of Internal Revenue Bulletin 1998-27 at
www.irs.gov/pub/irs-irbs/irb98-27.pdf.
Annual information statement If the
alternative tax regime under the
expatriation tax provisions apply to you,
check the “Yes” box in item P on Form
1040NR, page 5. You must also attach
an annual information statement to
Form 1040NR that lists by category (for
example, dividends, interest, etc.) all
items of U.S. and foreign source gross
income (whether or not taxable in the
United States). The statement must
identify the source of such income
Instructions for Form 1040NR

(determined under section 877 as
modified by Section V of Notice 97-19)
and those items of income subject to
tax under section 877. You must attach
the statement to Form 1040NR,
whether or not you owe any U.S. tax.

Expatriation After June 3,
2004
The alternative tax regime will apply to
you for the 10 succeeding tax years
following your action if any one of the
following apply.
1. Your average annual net income
tax for the last 5 tax years ending
before the date of your action to
relinquish your citizenship or terminate
your residency was more than
$124,000 for 2004, and $127,000 for
2005 (as adjusted annually for
inflation).
2. Your net worth on the date of
your action was $2,000,000 or more.
3. You fail to certify under penalties
of perjury that all of your U.S. federal
tax obligations for the last 5 tax years
ending before the date of your action
have been met.
Exception for dual citizens and
certain minors. Dual citizens and
certain minors are not subject to the
expatriation tax even if they meet (1) or
(2) above. However, they must provide
the certification required in (3) above.
For the definitions of “dual citizens” and
“certain minors,” see Pub. 519.
Exception if in the United States for
more than 30 days. Generally, the
alternative tax regime does not apply to
any tax year during the 10-year period
if you are physically present in the
United States for more than 30 days
during the calendar year ending in that
year. You must file Form 1040, 1040A,
or 1040EZ, and figure your tax as
prescribed in the instructions for those

forms. For details, see Tax
consequences of presence in the
United States under Expatriation After
June 3, 2004, in Pub. 519.
Annual information statement. If the
alternative tax regime under the
expatriation tax provisions applies to
you, check the “Yes” box in item P on
Form 1040NR, page 5, and attach a
completed Form 8854 (Parts I and III of
Schedules A and B) to your tax return.
You must attach the form for each of
the 10 tax years beginning with the
year that includes your date of
expatriation, whether or not you owe
U.S. tax. For more details regarding the
filing of Form 8854, see the Instructions
for Form 8854.
Penalty. If you fail to file a required
Form 8854 for any tax year or fail to
include all information required to be
shown on the form, you may have to
pay a penalty in the amount of $10,000
for each required Form 8854. You will
not have to pay the penalty if you can
show that the failure to file the
completed form was due to reasonable
cause.

How To Figure Your
Alternative Tax Under the
Expatriation Provisions
Note. The following discussion applies
to you whether you expatriated before
June 4, 2004, or after June 3, 2004.
If the alternative tax regime applies
to you, you are subject to tax on U.S.
source gross income and gains on
either (a) a net basis at the graduated
rates applicable to individuals (with
allowable deductions), or (b) a gross
basis at a rate of 30% (or lower treaty
rate) under the rules of section 871(a).
See page 27 for more details on the tax
imposed under section 871(a).

The type and rule above prints on all proofs including departmental reproduction proofs. MUST be removed before printing.

If you have items of U.S. source
income that are subject to tax under
section 871(a), you will be taxed at a
rate of 30% (or lower treaty rate) on
your gross income only if this tax
exceeds the tax at the regular
graduated rates on your net income. If
the 30% (or lower treaty rate) tax on
your gross income exceeds the
graduated tax on your net income,
report those items on the appropriate
lines on page 4 of Form 1040NR. If the
graduated tax on your net income
exceeds the 30% (or lower treaty rate)
tax on your gross income, report your
income on the appropriate lines on
page 1 of Form 1040NR and attach a
statement describing the items and
amounts of income that are subject to
tax by reason of section 877.
If you have other items of U.S.
source income that are not subject to
tax under section 871(a), you will be
taxed on a net basis at the regular
graduated rates applicable to
individuals. Report this income on the
appropriate lines on page 1 of
Form 1040NR.
For purposes of figuring the tax due
under section 877, the following items
of income are treated as U.S. source.
1. Gains on the sale or exchange of
personal property located in the United
States.
2. Gains on the sale or exchange of
stock issued by a domestic corporation
or debt obligations of the United States,
U.S. persons, a state or political
subdivision thereof, and the District of
Columbia.
3. Income or gain derived from
stock in a foreign corporation if you
owned, either directly or indirectly
(through the rules of sections 958(a)
and 958(b)) more than 50% of the vote
or value of the stock of the corporation
on the date of your renunciation of
citizenship or termination of residency
or at any time during the 2 years
preceding such date. Such income or
gain is considered U.S. source only to
the extent of your share of the earnings
and profits earned or accumulated prior
to the date of renunciation of U.S.
citizenship or termination of residency.
Any exchange of property is treated
as a sale of the property at its fair
market value on the date of the
exchange and any gain is treated as
U.S. source gross income in the tax
year of the exchange unless you enter
into a gain recognition agreement under
Notice 97-19.
You may not claim that a tax treaty
in effect on August 21, 1996, prevents
the imposition of tax by reason of
section 877.

additional information.
Married residents of Japan. If you
were a resident of Japan, you can claim
the exemption for your spouse only if
you meet the tests above and you are
electing to have the old U.S-Japan
income tax treaty apply in its entirety for
2005. You must also enter
“Japan-Article 30” in the entry space for
item M, Country, on page 5.

nationals and residents of Canada,
Mexico, the Republic of Korea (South
Korea), and Japan (if you elect to have
the old U.S.-Japan income tax treaty
apply in its entirety for 2005) can claim
exemptions for their dependents. If you
were a U.S. national (American
Samoan or a Northern Mariana Islander
who chose to be a U.S. national) or a
resident of Canada or Mexico, you can
claim exemptions for your children and
other dependents on the same terms
as U.S. citizens. See Pub. 501 for more
details. If you were a resident of the
Republic of Korea (South Korea), or
Japan (and you elect to have the old
U.S.-Japan income tax treaty apply in
its entirety for 2005), you can claim an
exemption for any of your children who
lived with you in the United States at
some time during 2005. Be sure to
complete item I on page 5 of the form.
Residents of Japan must also enter
“Japan-Article 30” in the entry space for
item M, Country, on page 5.
You can take an exemption for each
of your dependents. If you have more
than four dependents, attach a
statement to your return with the
required information.
Beginning in 2005, you will use
new rules to determine whether
CAUTION you can claim an exemption for
a dependent. See Exemptions for
Dependents in Pub. 501 for details.
Children who did not live with you
due to divorce or separation. If you
checked filing status box 1 or 3 and are

on page 17.
Note. Residents of India who were
students or business apprentices may
be able to claim exemptions for their
spouse and dependents. See Pub. 519
for details.
Line 7b — Spouse. If you checked
filing status box 3 or 4, you can take an
exemption for your spouse only if your
spouse had no gross income for U.S.
tax purposes and cannot be claimed as
a dependent on another U.S.
taxpayer’s return. (You can do this
even if your spouse died in 2005.) In
addition, if you checked filing status box
4, your spouse must have lived with

(SSN, ITIN, or adoption taxpayer
identification number (ATIN)). If you do
not enter the correct identifying number,
at the time we process your return we
may disallow the exemption claimed for
the dependent and reduce or disallow
any other tax benefits (such as the child
tax credit) based on the dependent.
For details on how your

TIP dependent can get an
identifying number, see
Identifying number on page 8.
If your dependent child was born
and died in 2005 and you do not have
an identifying number for the child, you
may attach a copy of the child’s birth
certificate instead and enter “Died” in
column (2).
Adoption taxpayer identification
numbers (ATINs). If you have a
dependent who was placed with you by
an authorized placement agency and
you do not know his or her SSN, you
must get an ATIN for the dependent
from the IRS. An authorized placement
agency includes any person authorized
by state law to place children for legal
adoption. See Form W-7A for details.
Line 7c, column (4). Check the box
in this column if your dependent is a
qualifying child for the child tax credit
(defined below). If you have at least
one qualifying child, you may be able to
take the child tax credit on line 47 and
the additional child tax credit on line 62.
Qualifying child for child tax
credit. A qualifying child for purposes
of the child tax credit is a child who:
• Was under age 17 at the end of
2005.
• Is your son, daughter, stepchild,
foster child, brother, sister, stepbrother,
stepsister, or a descendant of any of
them (for example, your grandchild,
niece, or nephew).
• Is a U.S. citizen, a U.S. national, or a
resident alien.
• Did not provide over half of his or her
own support for 2005.
• Lived with you more than half of
2005. Temporary absences, such as for
school, vacation, or medical care, count
as time lived in the home.
An adopted child is always treated
as your own child. An adopted child
includes a child lawfully placed with you
for legal adoption.

Rounding Off to Whole
Dollars
You may round off cents to whole
dollars on your return and schedules. If
you do round to whole dollars, you
must round all amounts. To round, drop
amounts under 50 cents and increase

dollar. For example, $1.39 becomes $1
and $2.50 becomes $3.
If you have to add two or more
amounts to figure the amount to enter
on a line, include cents when adding
the amounts and round off only the
total.

Income Effectively
Connected With U.S.
Trade or Business
Pub. 519 explains how income is
classified and what income you should
report here. The instructions for this
section assume you have decided that
the income involved is effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or
business in which you were engaged.
But your decision may not be easy.
Interest, for example, may be effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or
business, it may not be, or it may be
tax-exempt. The tax status of income
also depends on its source. Under
some circumstances, items of income
from foreign sources are treated as
effectively connected with a U.S. trade
or business. Other items are reportable
as effectively connected or not
effectively connected with a U.S. trade
or business, depending on how you
elect to treat them.
Line 8 — Wages, salaries, tips, etc.
Enter the total of your effectively
connected wages, salaries, tips, etc.
For most people, the amount to enter
on this line should be shown in their
Form(s) W-2, box 1. However, do not
include on line 8 amounts exempted
under a tax treaty. Instead, include
these amounts on line 22 and complete
item M on page 5 of Form 1040NR.
Also include on line 8:
• Wages received as a household
employee for which you did not receive
a Form W-2 because your employer
paid you less than $1,400 in 2005.
Also, enter “HSH” and the amount not
reported on a Form W-2 on the dotted
line next to line 8.
• Tip income you did not report to your
employer. Also include allocated tips
shown on your Form(s) W-2 unless you
can prove that you received less.
Allocated tips should be shown in your
Form(s) W-2, box 8. They are not
included as income in box 1. See
Pub. 531 for more details.
You may owe social security
and Medicare tax on unreported
CAUTION or allocated tips. See the
instructions for line 54 on page 20.
• Dependent care benefits, which
should be shown in your Form(s) W-2,
box 10. But first complete Form 2441 to
see if you may exclude part or all of the
benefits.

!

• Employer-provided adoption benefits,

which should be shown in
your Form(s) W-2, box 12, with code T.
You may also be able to exclude
amounts if you adopted a child with
special needs and the adoption
became final in 2005. See the
Instructions for Form 8839 to find out if
you may exclude part or all of the
benefits.
• Excess salary deferrals. The amount
deferred should be shown in your Form
W-2, box 12, and the “Retirement plan”
box in box 13 should be checked. If the
total amount you deferred for 2005
under all plans was more than $14,000
(excluding catch-up contributions as
explained below), include the excess on
line 8. This limit is (a) $10,000 if you
only have SIMPLE plans, or (b)
$17,000 for section 403(b) plans, if you
qualify for the 15-year rule in Pub. 571.
A higher limit may apply to
participants in section 457(b) deferred
compensation plans for the 3 years
before retirement age. Contact your
plan administrator for more information.
If you were age 50 or older at the
end of 2005, your employer may have
allowed an additional deferral of up to
$4,000 ($2,000 for SIMPLE plans). This
additional deferral amount is not subject
to the overall limit on elective deferrals.

!

CAUTION

You may not deduct the amount
deferred. It is not included as
income in your Form W-2,

box 1.
• Disability pensions shown on
Form 1099-R if you have not reached
the minimum retirement age set by your
employer. Disability pensions received
after you reach that age and other
payments shown on Form 1099-R
(other than payments from an IRA*) are
reported on lines 17a and 17b.
Payments from an IRA are reported on
lines 16a and 16b.
• Corrective distributions from a
retirement plan shown on Form 1099-R
of (a) excess salary deferrals plus
earnings and (b) excess contributions
plus earnings. But do not include
distributions from an IRA* on line 8.
Instead, report distributions from an IRA
on lines 16a and 16b.
*This includes a Roth, SEP, or
SIMPLE IRA.
Missing or incorrect Form W-2.
Your employer is required to provide or
send Form W-2 to you no later than
January 31, 2006. If you do not receive
it by early February, ask your employer
for it. Even if you do not get a Form
W-2, you must still report your earnings
on line 8. If you lose your Form W-2 or
it is incorrect, ask your employer for a
new one.
Line 9a — Taxable interest. Report on
line 9a all of your taxable interest

-10-

income from assets effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or
business.
If you received interest not
effectively connected with a U.S. trade
or business, report it on Form 1040NR,
page 4, unless it is tax exempt under a
treaty and the withholding agent did not
withhold tax on the payment. See Pub.
901 for a quick reference guide to the
provisions of U.S. tax treaties. In
addition, interest from a U.S. bank,
savings and loan association, credit
union, or similar institution, and from
certain deposits with U.S. insurance
companies, is tax exempt to a
nonresident alien if it is not effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or
business.
Interest credited in 2005 on deposits
that you could not withdraw because of
the bankruptcy or insolvency of the
financial institution may not have to be
included in your 2005 income. For
details, see Pub. 550.
Line 9b — Tax-exempt interest.
Certain types of interest income from
investments in state and municipal
bonds and similar instruments are not
taxed by the United States. If you
received such tax-exempt interest
income, report the amount on line 9b.
Include any exempt-interest dividends
from a mutual fund or other regulated
investment company. Do not include
interest earned on your IRA or
Coverdell education savings account.
Also do not include interest from a U.S.
bank, savings and loan association,
credit union, or similar institution (or
from certain deposits with U.S.
insurance companies) that is exempt
from tax under a tax treaty or under
section 871(i) because the interest is
not effectively connected with a U.S.
trade or business.
Line 10a — Ordinary dividends. Enter
your total ordinary dividends from
assets effectively connected with a U.S.
trade or business. Each payer should
send you a Form 1099-DIV.
Capital gain distributions. If you
received any capital gain distributions,
see the instructions for line 14 on page
12.
Nondividend distributions. Some
distributions are a return of your cost
(or other basis). They will not be taxed
until you recover your cost (or other
basis). You must reduce your cost (or
other basis) by these distributions. After
you get back all of your cost (or other
basis), you must report these
distributions as capital gains on
Schedule D (Form 1040). For details,
see Pub. 550.

Dividends on insurance policies

TIP are a partial return of the
premiums you paid. Do not
report them as dividends. Include them
in income only if they exceed the total
of all net premiums you paid for the
contract.
Line 10b — Qualified dividends. Enter
your total qualified dividends on line
10b. Qualified dividends are eligible for
a lower tax rate than other ordinary
income. Generally, these dividends are
shown in your Form(s) 1099-DIV, box
1b. See Pub. 550 for the definition of
qualified dividends if you received
dividends not reported on Form
1099-DIV.
Exception. Some dividends may be
reported as qualified dividends in Form
1099-DIV, box 1b, but are not qualified
dividends. These include:
• Dividends you received as a
nominee. See chapter 1 in Pub. 550.
• Dividends you received on any share
of stock that you held for less than 61
days during the 121-day period that
began 60 days before the ex-dividend
date. The ex-dividend date is the first
date following the declaration of a
dividend on which the purchaser of a
stock is not entitled to receive the next
dividend payment. When counting the
number of days you held the stock,
include the day you disposed of the
stock but not the day you acquired it.
See the examples below. However, you
cannot count certain days during which
your risk of loss was diminished. See
Pub. 550 for more details.
• Dividends attributable to periods
totaling more than 366 days that you
received on any share of preferred
stock held for less than 91 days during
the 181-day period that began 90 days
before the ex-dividend date. When
counting the number of days you held
the stock, you cannot count certain
days during which your risk of loss was
diminished. See Pub. 550 for more
details. Preferred dividends attributable
to periods totaling less than 367 days
are subject to the 61-day holding period
rule above.
• Dividends on any share of stock to
the extent that you are under an
obligation (including a short sale) to
make related payments with respect to
positions in substantially similar or
related property.
• Payments in lieu of dividends, but
only if you know or have reason to
know that the payments are not
qualified dividends.
Example 1. You bought 5,000
shares of XYZ Corp. common stock on
June 30, 2005. XYZ Corp. paid a cash
dividend of 10 cents per share. The
ex-dividend date was July 8, 2005.
Your Form 1099-DIV from XYZ Corp.
shows $500 in box 1a (ordinary
Instructions for Form 1040NR

dividends) and in box 1b (qualified
dividends). However, you sold the
5,000 shares on August 3, 2005. You
held your shares of XYZ Corp. for only
34 days of the 121-day period (from
July 1, 2005, through August 3, 2005).
The 121 day period began on May 9,
2005 (60 days before the ex-dividend
date), and ended on September 6,
2005. You have no qualified dividends
from XYZ Corp. because you held the
XYZ stock for less than 61 days.
Example 2. Assume the same facts
as in Example 1 except that you bought
the stock on July 7, 2005 (the day
before the ex-dividend date), and you
sold the stock on September 8, 2005.
You held the stock for 63 days (from
July 8, 2005, through September 8,
2005). The $500 of qualified dividends
shown in Form 1099-DIV, box 1b, are
all qualified dividends because you held
the stock for 61 days of the 121-day
period (from July 8, 2005, through
September 6, 2005).
Example 3. You bought 10,000
shares of ABC Mutual Fund common
stock on June 30, 2005. ABC Mutual
Fund paid a cash dividend of 10 cents
a share. The ex-dividend date was July
8, 2005. The ABC Mutual Fund advises
you that the portion of the dividend
eligible to be treated as qualified
dividends equals 2 cents per share.
Your Form 1099-DIV from ABC Mutual
Fund shows total ordinary dividends of
$1,000 and qualified dividends of $200.
However, you sold the 10,000 shares
on August 3, 2005. You have no
qualified dividends from ABC Mutual
Fund because you held the ABC
Mutual Fund stock for less than 61
days.
Be sure you use the Qualified

TIP Dividends and Capital Gain Tax
Worksheet or the Schedule D
Tax Worksheet, whichever applies, to
figure your tax. Your tax may be less.
See the instructions for line 41
beginning on page 17 for details.
Line 11 — Taxable refunds, credits,
or offsets of state and local income
taxes. If you received a refund, credit,
or offset of state or local income taxes
in 2005, you may receive a Form
1099-G. If you chose to apply part or all
of the refund to your 2005 estimated
state or local income tax, the amount
applied is treated as received in 2005.
For details on how to figure the
amount you must report as income, see
Recoveries in Pub. 525.
Line 12 — Scholarship and fellowship
grants. If you received a scholarship or
fellowship, part or all of it may be
taxable.
If you were a degree candidate, the
amounts you used for expenses other
than tuition and course-related

-11-

expenses (fees, books, supplies, and
equipment) are generally taxable. For
example, amounts used for room,
board, and travel are generally taxable.
If you were not a degree candidate,
the full amount of the scholarship or
fellowship is generally taxable. Also,
amounts received in the form of a
scholarship or fellowship that are
payment for teaching, research, or
other services are generally taxable as
wages even if the services were
required to get the grant.
If the grant was reported on
Form(s) 1042-S, you must generally
include the amount shown in Form(s)
1042-S, box 2, on line 12. However, if
any or all of that amount is exempt by
treaty, do not include the treaty-exempt
amount on line 12. Instead, include the
treaty-exempt amount on line 22 and
complete item M on page 5 of Form
1040NR.
Attach any Form(s) 1042-S you
received from the college or institution.
If you did not receive a Form 1042-S,
attach a statement from the college or
institution (on their letterhead) showing
the details of the grant.
For more information about
scholarships and fellowships in general,
see Pub. 970.
Example 1. You are a citizen of a
country that has not negotiated a tax
treaty with the United States. You are a
candidate for a degree at ABC
University (located in the United
States). You are receiving a full
scholarship from ABC University. The
total amounts you received from ABC
University during 2005 are as follows:
Tuition and fees $25,000
Books, supplies,
and equipment
1,000
Room and
board
9,000
$35,000
The Form 1042-S you received from
ABC University for 2005 shows $9,000
in box 2 and $1,260 (14% of $9,000) in
box 7.
Note. Box 2 shows only $9,000
because withholding agents (such as
ABC University) are not required to
report section 117 amounts (tuition,
fees, books, supplies, and equipment)
on Form 1042-S.
When completing Form 1040NR:
• Enter on line 12 the $9,000 shown in
box 2 of Form 1042-S.
• Enter $0 on line 30. Because
section 117 amounts (tuition, fees,
books, supplies, and equipment) were
not included in box 2 of your Form
1042-S (and are not included on line 12
of Form 1040NR), you cannot exclude

any of the section 117 amounts on line
30.
• Include on line 59 the $1,260 shown
in box 7 of Form 1042-S.
Example 2. The facts are the same
as in Example 1 except that you are a
citizen of a country that has negotiated
a tax treaty with the United States and
you were a resident of that country
immediately before leaving for the
United States to attend ABC University.
Also, assume that, under the terms of
the tax treaty, all of your scholarship
income is exempt from tax because
ABC University is a nonprofit
educational organization.
Note. Many tax treaties do not permit
an exemption from tax on scholarship
or fellowship grant income unless the
income is from sources outside the
United States. If you are a resident of a
treaty country, you must know the
terms of the tax treaty between the
United States and the treaty country to
claim treaty benefits on Form 1040NR.
See the instructions for item M on page
28 for details.
When completing Form 1040NR:
• Enter $0 on line 12. The $9,000
reported to you in box 2 of
Form 1042-S is reported on line 22 (not
line 12).
• Enter $9,000 on line 22.
• Enter $0 on line 30. Because none of
the $9,000 reported to you in box 2 of
Form 1042-S is included in your
income, you cannot exclude it on
line 30.
• Include on line 59 any withholding
shown in box 7 of Form 1042-S.
• Provide all the required information in
item M on page 5.
Line 13 — Business income or (loss).
If you operated a business or practiced
your profession as a sole proprietor,
report your effectively connected
income and expenses on Schedule C
or Schedule C-EZ (Form 1040).
Include any income you received as
a dealer in stocks, securities, and
commodities through your U.S. office. If
you dealt in these items through an
independent agent, such as a U.S.
broker, custodian, or commissioned
agent, your income may not be
considered effectively connected with a
U.S. business.
Line 14 — Capital gain or (loss). If
you had effectively connected capital
gains or losses, including any
effectively connected capital gain
distributions, or a capital loss carryover
from 2004, you must complete and
attach Schedule D (Form 1040). But
see the Exception below. Enter the
effectively connected gain or (loss) from
Schedule D (Form 1040) on line 14.
Gains and losses from disposing of
U.S. real property interests are reported

on Schedule D (Form 1040) and
included on line 14 of Form 1040NR.
See Dispositions of U.S. Real Property
Interests on page 6.
Exception. You do not have to file
Schedule D (Form 1040) if both of the
following apply.
• The only amounts you have to report
on Schedule D (Form 1040) are
effectively connected capital gain
distributions from Form(s) 1099-DIV,
box 2a, or substitute statements.
• None of the Forms 1099-DIV or
substitute statements have an amount
in box 2b (unrecaptured section 1250
gain), box 2c (section 1202 gain), or
box 2d (collectibles (28%) gain).
If both of the above apply, enter your
effectively connected capital gain
distributions (from box 2a of Form(s)
1099-DIV) on line 14 and check the box
on that line. If you received capital gain
distributions as a nominee (that is, they
were paid to you but actually belong to
someone else), report on line 14 only
the amount that belongs to you. Attach
a statement showing the full amount
you received and the amount you
received as a nominee. See chapter 1
of Pub. 550 for filing requirements for
Forms 1099-DIV and 1096.
If you do not have to file

TIP Schedule D, be sure you use
the Qualified Dividends and
Capital Gain Tax Worksheet on page
18 to figure your tax. Your tax may be
less if you use this worksheet.
Line 15 — Other gains or (losses). If
you sold or exchanged assets used in a
U.S. trade or business, see the
Instructions for Form 4797.
Lines 16a and 16b — IRA
distributions. You should receive a
Form 1099-R showing the amount of
any distribution from your individual
retirement arrangement (IRA). Unless
otherwise noted in the line 16a and 16b
instructions, an IRA includes a
traditional IRA, Roth IRA, simplified
employee pension (SEP) IRA, and a
savings incentive match plan for
employees (SIMPLE) IRA. Except as
provided below, leave line 16a blank
and enter the total distribution on
line 16b.
Special rules may apply if

TIP you received a distribution from
your individual retirement
arrangement (IRA) and your main home
was in the Hurricane Katrina, Rita, or
Wilma disaster area. Special rules may
also apply if you received a distribution
to buy or construct a main home in the
Hurricane Katrina, Rita, or Wilma
disaster area, but that home was not
bought or constructed because of
Hurricane Katrina, Rita, or Wilma. See
the Form 8915 and its instructions for
details.

Exception 1. Enter the total
distribution on line 16a if you rolled over
part or all of the distribution from one:
• IRA to another IRA of the same type
(for example, from one traditional IRA
to another traditional IRA), or
• SEP or SIMPLE IRA to a traditional
IRA.
Also, put “Rollover” next to line 16b.
If the total distribution was rolled over in
a qualified rollover, enter zero on line
16b. If the total distribution was not
rolled over in a qualified rollover, enter
the part not rolled over on line 16b
unless Exception 2 applies to the part
not rolled over. Generally, a qualified
rollover must be made within 60 days
after the day you received the
distribution. For more details on
rollovers, see Pub. 590.
If you rolled over the distribution (a)
in 2006, or (b) from an IRA into a
qualified plan (other than an IRA),
attach a statement explaining what you
did.
Exception 2. If any of the following
apply, enter the total distribution on
line 16a and use Form 8606 and its
instructions to figure the amount to
enter on line 16b.
• You received a distribution from an
IRA (other than a Roth IRA) and you
made nondeductible contributions to
any of your traditional or SEP IRAs for
2005 or an earlier year. If you made
nondeductible contributions to these
IRAs for 2005, also see Pub. 590.
• You received a distribution from a
Roth IRA. But if either 1 or 2 below
applies, enter -0- on line 16b; you do
not have to see Form 8606 or its

1040NR.
Some annuities are tax-exempt. See
chapter 3 of Pub. 519.
Note. If you perform services in the
United States, your income is generally
effectively connected with the conduct
of a U.S. trade or business. (See
section 864 for details and exceptions.)
When you receive a pension in a later
year as a result of effectively connected
services, the pension may also be
considered effectively connected with
the conduct of a U.S. trade or business.
Fully taxable pensions and
annuities. If your pension or annuity is
fully taxable, enter it on line 17b; do not
make an entry on line 17a. Your
payments are fully taxable if (a) you did
not contribute to the cost (defined on
page 14) of your pension or annuity, or
(b) you got your entire cost back tax
free before 2005.
If you received a Form RRB-1099-R,
see Pub. 575 for information on how to
report your benefits.
Partially taxable pensions and
annuities. Enter the total pension or
annuity payments you received in 2005
on line 17a. If your Form 1099-R does
not show the taxable amount, you must
use the General Rule explained in
Pub. 939 to figure the taxable part to
enter on line 17b. But if your annuity
starting date (defined on page 14) was
after July 1, 1986, see Simplified
method below to find out if you must

use that method to figure the taxable
part.
You can ask the IRS to figure the
taxable part for you for a $95 fee. For
details, see Pub. 939.
If your Form 1099-R shows a taxable
amount, you may report that amount on
line 17b. But you may be able to report
a lower taxable amount by using the
General Rule or the Simplified Method.
Annuity starting date. Your annuity
starting date is the later of the first day
of the first period for which you
received a payment, or the date the
plan’s obligations became fixed.
Simplified method. You must use
the Simplified Method if (a) your annuity
starting date (defined above) was after
July 1, 1986, and you used this method
last year to figure the taxable part, or
(b) your annuity starting date was after
November 18, 1996, and both of the
following apply.
• The payments are from a qualified
employee plan, a qualified employee
annuity, or a tax-sheltered annuity.
• On your annuity starting date, either
you were under age 75 or the number
of years of guaranteed payments was
fewer than 5. See Pub. 575 for the
definition of guaranteed payments.
If you must use the Simplified
Method, complete the worksheet on
page 13 to figure the taxable part of
your pension or annuity. For more
details on the Simplified Method, see
Pub. 575.
Age (or combined ages) at annuity
starting date. If you are the retiree,
use your age on the annuity starting
date. If you are the survivor of a retiree,
use the retiree’s age on his or her
annuity starting date. But if your annuity
starting date was after 1997 and the
payments are for your life and that of
your beneficiary, use your combined
ages on the annuity starting date.
If you are the beneficiary of an
employee who died, see Pub. 575. If
there is more than one beneficiary, see
Pub. 575 to figure each beneficiary’s
taxable amount.
Cost. Your cost is generally your
net investment in the plan as of the
annuity starting date. It does not
include pre-tax contributions. Your net
investment should be shown in Form
1099-R, box 9b, for the first year you
received payments from the plan.
Rollovers. Generally, a qualified
rollover is a tax-free distribution of cash
or other assets from one retirement
plan that is contributed to another plan
within 60 days of receiving the
distribution. Use lines 17a and 17b to
report a qualified rollover, including a
direct rollover, from one qualified
employer’s plan to another or to an IRA
or SEP.

Enter on line 17a the total
distribution before income tax or other
deductions were withheld. This amount
should be shown in Form 1099-R, box
1. From the total on line 17a, subtract
any contributions (usually shown in box
5) that were taxable to you when made.
From that result, subtract the amount of
the qualified rollover. Enter the
remaining amount, even if zero, on line
17b. Also enter “Rollover” next to line
17b.

Pub. 525. The following are examples
of income to report on line 21.
Taxable distributions from a
Coverdell education savings account
(ESA) or a qualified tuition program
(QTP). Distributions from these
accounts may be taxable if (a) they are
more than the qualified higher
education expenses of the designated
beneficiary in 2005, and (b) they were
not included in a qualified rollover. See
Pub. 970.

Special rules apply to partial
rollovers of property. For more details
on rollovers, including distributions
under qualified domestic relations
orders, see Pub. 575.
Lump-sum distributions. If you
received a lump-sum distribution from a
profit-sharing or retirement plan, your
Form 1099-R should have the “Total
distribution” box in box 2b checked.
You may owe an additional tax if you
received an early distribution from a
qualified retirement plan and the total
amount was not rolled over in a
qualified rollover. For details, see the
instructions for line 55 on page 20.

You may have to pay an
additional tax if you received a
CAUTION taxable distribution from a
Coverdell ESA or a QTP. See the
Instructions for Form 5329.
Taxable distributions from a
health savings account (HSA) or an
Archer MSA. Distributions from an
HSA or an Archer MSA may be taxable
if (a) they are more than the
unreimbursed qualified medical
expenses of the account beneficiary or
account holder in 2005, and (b) they
were not included in a qualified rollover.
See Pub. 969.

Enter the total distribution on
line 17a and the taxable part on
line 17b.
You may be able to pay less tax

TIP on the distribution if you were
born before January 2, 1936, or
you are the beneficiary of a deceased
employee who was born before
January 2, 1936. For details, see Form
4972.
Line 20 — Unemployment
compensation. You should receive a
Form 1099-G showing the total
unemployment compensation paid to
you in 2005.
If you received an overpayment of
unemployment compensation in 2005
and you repaid any of it in 2005,
subtract the amount you repaid from
the total amount you received. Enter
the result on line 20. Also, enter
“Repaid” and the amount you repaid on
the dotted line next to line 20. If, in
2005, you repaid unemployment
compensation that you included in
gross income in an earlier year, you
may deduct the amount repaid on
Schedule A (Form 1040NR), line 11.
But if you repaid more than $3,000, see
Repayments in Pub. 525 for details on
how to report the repayment.
Line 21 — Other income. Use this line
to report any other income effectively
connected with your U.S. business that
is not reported elsewhere on your
return or other schedules. List the type
and amount of income. If necessary,
show the required information on an
attached statement. For more details,

Adjusted Gross Income
Line 24 — Educator expenses. If you
were an eligible educator in 2005, you
can deduct up to $250 of qualified
expenses you paid in 2005. An eligible
educator is a kindergarten through
grade 12 teacher, instructor, counselor,
principal, or aide in a school for at least
900 hours during a school year.
Qualified expenses include ordinary
and necessary expenses paid in
connection with books, supplies,
equipment (including computer
equipment, software, and services),
and other materials used in the
classroom. An ordinary expense is one
that is common and accepted in your
educational field. A necessary expense
is one that is helpful and appropriate for
your profession as an educator. An
expense does not have to be required
to be considered necessary.

Qualified expenses do not include
expenses for home schooling or for
nonathletic supplies for courses in
health or physical education. You must
reduce your qualified expenses by the
following amounts.
• Excludable U.S. series EE and I
savings bond interest from Form 8815.
• Nontaxable qualified state tuition
program earnings.
• Nontaxable earnings from Coverdell
education savings accounts.
• Any reimbursements you received for
these expenses that were not reported
to you in Form W-2, box 1.
Line 25 — Health Savings Account
Deduction. If contributions (other than
employer contributions) were made to
your health savings account for 2005,
you may be able to take this deduction.
See Form 8889.
Line 26 — Moving expenses.
Employees and self-employed persons
(including partners) can deduct certain
moving expenses. The move must be in
connection with employment that
generates effectively connected
income.
If you moved in connection with your
job or business or started a new job,
you may be able to take this deduction.
But your new workplace must be at
least 50 miles farther from your old
home than your old home was from
your old workplace. If you had no
former workplace, your new workplace
must be at least 50 miles from your old
home. The deduction is generally
limited to moves to or within the United
States or its possessions. If you meet
these requirements, see Pub. 521. Use
Form 3903 to figure the amount to
enter on this line.
Line 27 — Self-employed SEP,
SIMPLE, and qualified plans. If you
were self-employed or a partner, you
may be able to take this deduction. See
Pub. 560 or, if you were a minister,
Pub. 517.
Line 28 — Self-employed health
insurance deduction. If you were
self-employed and had a net profit for
the year, you may be able to deduct the
amount you paid for health insurance
for yourself, your spouse, and your
dependents. The insurance plan must
be established under your business.
But if you were also eligible to
participate in any subsidized health
plan maintained by your or your
spouse’s employer for any month or
part of a month in 2005, amounts paid
for health insurance coverage for that
month cannot be used to figure the
deduction. For example, if you were
eligible to participate in a subsidized
health plan maintained by your
spouse’s employer from September 30
through December 31, you cannot use

Note. If, during 2005, you were an
eligible trade adjustment assistance
(TAA) recipient, alternative TAA
recipient, or Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation (PBGC) pension recipient,
you must complete Form 8885 before
completing the worksheet below. When
figuring the amount to enter on line 1 of
the worksheet below, do not include
any health coverage tax credit advance
payments shown in Form 1099-H, box
1. Also, subtract the amount shown on
Form 8885, line 4, (reduced by any
advance payments shown on line 6 of
that form) from the total insurance
premiums you paid.

Line 31 — IRA deduction.

If you qualify to take the deduction,
use the worksheet below to figure the
amount you can deduct.
Exception. Use Pub. 535 instead of
the worksheet below to find out how to
figure your deduction if either of the
following applies.
• You had more than one source of
income from self-employment.
• You are using amounts paid for
qualified long-term care insurance to
figure the deduction.

withdrawal of savings. The
Form 1099-INT or Form 1099-OID you
received will show the amount of any
penalty you were charged.

If you made any nondeductible

TIP contributions to a traditional
individual retirement
arrangement (IRA) for 2005, you must
report them on Form 8606.
If you made contributions to a
traditional IRA for 2005, you may be
able to take an IRA deduction. But you
must have had earned income to do so.
A statement should be sent to you by
May 31, 2006, that shows all
contributions to your traditional IRA for
2005.
Were you covered by a retirement
plan? If you were covered by a
retirement plan (qualified pension,
profit-sharing (including 401(k)),
annuity, SEP, SIMPLE, etc.) at work or
through self-employment, your IRA
deduction may be reduced or
eliminated. But you can still make
contributions to an IRA even if you
cannot deduct them. In any case, the
income earned on your IRA
contributions is not taxed until it is paid
to you.
The “Retirement plan” box in Form
W-2, box 13, should be checked if you
were covered by a plan at work even if
you were not vested in the plan. You
are also covered by a plan if you were
self-employed and had a SEP,
SIMPLE, or qualified retirement plan.
If you were covered by a retirement
plan and you file Form 8815 or you
exclude employer-provided adoption
benefits, see Pub. 590 to figure the
amount, if any, of your IRA deduction.

qualified student loan (see below).
• You checked filing status box 1, 2, or
6.
• Your modified adjusted gross income
(AGI) is less than $65,000. Use lines 2
through 4 of the worksheet below to
figure your modified AGI.
• You are not claimed as a dependent
on someone else’s (such as your
parent’s) 2005 tax return.
Use the worksheet below to figure
your student loan interest deduction.
Qualified student loan. This is any
loan you took out to pay the qualified
higher education expenses for:
• Yourself and your spouse.
• Any person who was your dependent
when the loan was taken out.
• Any person you could have claimed
as a dependent on your return when
the loan was taken out if that person
had no gross income or had not filed a
joint return.
• Any person you could have claimed
as a dependent on your return for the
prior year when the loan was taken out

except that you could be claimed as a
dependent on someone else’s return.
The person for whom the expenses
were paid must have been an eligible
student (see below). However, a loan is
not a qualified student loan if (a) any of
the proceeds were used for other
purposes, or (b) the loan was from
either a related person or a person who
borrowed the proceeds under a
qualified employer plan or a contract
purchased under such a plan. To find
out who is a related person, see Pub.
970.
Qualified higher education expenses
generally include tuition, fees, room and
board, and related expenses such as
books and supplies. The expenses
must be for education in a degree,
certificate, or similar program at an
eligible educational institution. An
eligible educational institution includes
most colleges, universities, and certain
vocational schools. You must reduce
the expenses by the following benefits.
• Employer-provided educational
assistance benefits that are not
included in Form(s) W-2, box 1.
• Excludable U.S. series EE and I
savings bond interest from Form 8815.
• Nontaxable qualified tuition program
earnings.

taxable interest, ordinary dividends, or
capital gains (including capital gain
distributions), that is effectively

business. But if neither of the child’s
parents was alive on December 31,
2005, do not use Form 8615 to figure
the child’s tax.
Also, a child born on January 1,
1992, is considered to be age 14 at the
end of 2005. Do not use Form 8615 for
such a child.

Schedule D Tax Worksheet. If you
have to file Schedule D (Form 1040)

Line 56 — Transportation tax.
Nonresident alien individuals are
subject to a 4% tax on U.S. source
gross transportation income that is not
effectively connected with a U.S. trade
or business. However, the term U.S.
source gross transportation income
does not include any such income that
is taxable in a possession of the United
States under the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code as applied to
that possession.
For purposes of this tax,
transportation income will be treated as
not effectively connected with the
conduct of a trade or business in the
United States unless:
1. You had a fixed place of business
in the United States involved in the
earning of transportation income, and
2. At least 90% of your U.S. source
gross transportation income was
attributable to regularly scheduled
transportation. Or, in the case of
income from the leasing of a vessel or
aircraft, it was attributable to a fixed
place of business in the United States.
See sections 887 and 863 for rules,
definitions, and exceptions.
You may be exempt from this tax
because of a treaty or an exchange of
notes between the United States and
the country of which you are a resident.
If the country of which you are a
resident does not impose tax on the
shipping or aircraft income of U.S.
persons, you may also be exempt from
this tax. If you are exempt from the tax
for one of these reasons, you must
attach a statement to Form 1040NR
identifying your country of residence
and the treaty, note, or law and
provisions under which you claim
exemption from the tax.
If you owe this tax, you must attach
a statement to your return that includes
the information described in Pub. 519.

more than one employer for 2005 and
total wages of more than $90,000, too
much social security or tier 1 railroad
retirement (RRTA) tax may have been
withheld. You can take a credit on this
line for the amount withheld in excess
of $5,580. But if any one employer
withheld more than $5,580, you cannot
claim the excess on your return. The
employer should adjust the tax for you.
If the employer does not adjust the
overcollection, you can file a claim for
refund using Form 843.
You cannot claim a refund for
excess tier 2 RRTA tax on Form

if any, of your child tax credit. See the
instructions for line 47 starting on page
19.
2. Read the TIP at the end of your

you filed Form 4868 to get an automatic
extension of time to file Form 1040NR,

enter any amount you paid with that
form or by electronic funds withdrawal
or credit card. If you paid by credit card,
do not include on line 63 the

Refund
Line 70 — Amount overpaid. If
line 70 is under $1, we will send a
refund only on written request.
If the amount you overpaid is

TIP large, you may be able to
decrease the amount of income
tax withheld from your pay by filing a
new Form W-4. See Income Tax
Withholding and Estimated Tax
Payments for Individuals for 2006 on
page 29.

-22-

Refund offset. If you owe past-due
federal tax, state income tax, child
support, spousal support, or certain
federal nontax debts, such as student
loans, all or part of the overpayment on
line 70 may be used (offset) to pay the
past-due amount. Offsets for federal
taxes are made by the IRS. All other
offsets are made by the Treasury
Department’s Financial Management
Service (FMS). For federal tax offsets,
you will receive a notice from the IRS.
For all other offsets, you will receive a
notice from FMS. To find out if you may
have an offset or if you have any
questions about it, contact the
agency(ies) to which you owe the debt.
Lines 71b through 71d — Direct
deposit of refund. Complete lines 71b
through 71d if you want us to directly
deposit the amount shown on line 71a
into your checking or savings account
at a U.S. bank or other financial
institution (such as a mutual fund,
brokerage firm, or credit union) in the
United States instead of sending you a
check.
Note. If you do not want your refund
directly deposited into your account,
draw a line through the boxes on lines
71b and 71d.
Why Use Direct Deposit?
• You get your refund fast.
• Payment is more secure — there is
no check to get lost.
• More convenient. No trip to the bank
to deposit your check.
• Saves tax dollars. A refund by direct
deposit costs less than a check.
You can check with your

TIP financial institution to make sure
your direct deposit will be
accepted and to get the correct routing
and account numbers. The IRS is not
responsible for a lost refund if you enter
the wrong account information.
Line 71b. The routing number must
be nine digits. The first two digits must
be 01 through 12 or 21 through 32.
Otherwise, the direct deposit will be
rejected and a check sent instead. The
routing number of the sample check
above is 250250025.
Your check may state that it is
payable through a financial institution
different from the one at which you
have your checking account. If so, do
not use the routing number on that
check. Instead, contact your financial
institution for the correct routing number
to enter on line 71b.
Line 71d. The account number can
be up to 17 characters (both numbers
and letters). Include hyphens but omit
spaces and special symbols. Enter the
number from left to right and leave any
unused boxes blank. The account

any, of the overpayment on line 70 you
want applied to your 2006 estimated
tax. This election cannot be changed
later.

Amount You Owe
Line 73 — Amount you owe.
Pay your taxes in full to save

TIP interest and penalties. You do
not have to pay if line 73 is
under $1.
Include any estimated tax penalty
from line 74 in the amount you enter on
line 73.
You can pay by check, money order,
or credit card. Do not include any
estimated tax payment for 2006 in your
check, money order, or amount you
charge. Instead, make the estimated
tax payment separately.
To pay by check or money order.
Make your check or money order
payable to the “United States
Treasury” for the full amount due. Do
not send cash. Do not attach the
payment to your return. Write “2005
Form 1040NR” and your name,
address, daytime phone number, and
SSN or ITIN on your payment.
To help process your payment, enter
the amount on the right side of the
check like this: $ XXX.XX. Do not use
dashes or lines (for example,
do not
XX
enter “XXX – ” or “XXX 100”).
To pay by credit card. You can use
your American Express Card,
Discover Card, MasterCard card, or
Visa card. To pay by credit card, call
toll free or visit the website of either
service provider listed on this page and
follow the instructions. You will be
asked to provide your social security
number (SSN). If you do not have and
are not eligible to get an SSN, use your
IRS-issued individual taxpayer
identification number (ITIN) instead.
A convenience fee will be charged
by the service provider based on the
amount you are paying. Fees may vary
between the providers. You will be told
what the fee is during the transaction
and you will have the option to either
continue or cancel the transaction. You
can also find out what the fee will be by
calling the provider’s toll-free
automated customer service number or
visiting the provider’s website shown

You may need to (a) increase

TIP the amount of income tax
withheld from your pay by filing
a new Form W-4, or (b) make estimated
tax payments for 2006. See Income
Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax
Payments for Individuals for 2006 on
page 29.
What if you cannot pay? If you
cannot pay the full amount shown on
line 73 when you file, you can ask to
make monthly installment payments for
the full or a partial amount. You may
have up to 60 months to pay. However,
you will be charged interest and may be
charged a late payment penalty on the
tax not paid by the date due, even if
your request to pay in installments is
granted. You must also pay a fee. To
limit the interest and penalty charges,
pay as much of the tax as possible
when you file. But before requesting an
installment agreement, you should
consider other less costly alternatives,
such as a bank loan or credit card
payment.
To ask for an installment agreement,
use Form 9465. You should receive a
response to your request for
installments within 30 days. But if you
file your return after March 31, it may
take us longer to reply.
Line 74 — Estimated tax penalty. You
may owe this penalty if:
• Line 73 is at least $1,000 and it is
more than 10% of the tax shown on
your return, or
• You did not pay enough estimated
tax by any of the due dates. This is true
even if you are due a refund.
For most people, the “tax shown on
your return” is the amount on line 58
minus the total of any amounts shown
on line 62 and Forms 8828, 4137,
4136, 5329 (Parts III through VIII only),
and 8885. Also subtract from line 58
any tax on an excess parachute
payment and any excise tax on insider
stock compensation of an expatriated
corporation. When figuring the amount
on line 58, include the amount on line
57 only if line 59 is more than zero or
you would owe the penalty even if you
did not include those taxes. But if you
entered an amount on Schedule H
(Form 1040), line 7, include the total of

-23-

that amount plus the amount on Form
1040NR, line 57.
Exception. You will not owe the
penalty if your 2004 tax return was for a
tax year of 12 full months and either of
the following applies.
1. You had no tax shown on your
2004 return and you were a U.S. citizen
or resident for all of 2004, or
2. The total of lines 59, 60, 61, and
65 through 68b on your 2005 return is
at least as much as the tax shown on
your 2004 return. Your estimated tax
payments for 2005 must have been
made on time and for the required
amount.
If your 2004 adjusted gross
income was over $150,000
CAUTION (over $75,000 if you checked
filing status box 3, 4, or 5 for 2005),
item (2) applies only if the total of lines
59, 60, 61, and 65 through 68b on your
2005 tax return is at least 110% of the
tax shown on your 2004 return. This
rule does not apply to farmers and
fishermen.
Figuring the penalty. If the Exception
above does not apply and you choose
to figure the penalty yourself, see Form
2210 (or Form 2210-F for farmers and
fishermen) to find out if you owe the
penalty. If you do, you can use the form
to figure the amount.
Enter the penalty on Form 1040NR,
line 74. Add the penalty to any tax due
and enter the total on line 73. If you are
due a refund, subtract the penalty from
the overpayment you show on line 70.
Do not file Form 2210 with your return
unless Form 2210 indicates that you
must do so. Instead, keep it for your
records.

!

Because Form 2210 is

TIP complicated, you can leave line
74 blank and the IRS will figure
the penalty and send you a bill. We will
not charge you interest on the penalty if
you pay by the date specified on the
bill. If your income varied during the
year, the annualized income installment
method may reduce the amount of your
penalty. But you must file Form 2210
because the IRS cannot figure your
penalty under this method. See the
Instructions for Form 2210 for other
situations in which you may be able to
lower your penalty by filing Form 2210.

Third Party Designee
If you want to allow a friend, family
member, or any other person you
choose to discuss your 2005 tax return
with the IRS, check the “Yes” box in the
“Third Party Designee” area of your

the paid preparer who signed your
return to discuss it with the IRS, just
enter “Preparer” in the space for the
designee’s name. You do not have to
provide the other information
requested.
If you check the “Yes” box, you are
authorizing the IRS to call the designee
to answer any questions that may arise
during the processing of your return.
You are also authorizing the designee
to:
• Give the IRS any information that is
missing from your return,
• Call the IRS for information about the
processing of your return or the status
of your refund or payment(s),
• Receive copies of notices or
transcripts related to your return, upon
request, and
• Respond to certain IRS notices about
math errors, offsets, and return
preparation.
You are not authorizing the designee
to receive any refund check, bind you
to anything (including any additional tax
liability), or otherwise represent you
before the IRS. If you want to expand
the designee’s authorization, see
Pub. 947.
The authorization will automatically
end no later than the due date (without
regard to extensions) for filing your
2006 tax return (see When To File on

Instead, see the instructions for
Form 1040NR, line 11, on page 11.

Gifts to U.S. Charities
Lines 4a Through 7
You can deduct contributions or gifts
you gave to U.S. organizations that are
religious, charitable, educational,
scientific, or literary in purpose. You
can also deduct what you gave to
organizations that work to prevent
cruelty to children or animals.
To verify an organization’s charitable
status, you can:
• Check with the organization to which
you made the donation. The
organization should be able to provide
you with verification of its charitable
status.
• See Pub. 78 for a list of most
qualified organizations. You can access
Pub. 78 at www.irs.gov under Charities
and Non-Profits.
• If in the United States, call our Tax
Exempt/Government Entities Customer
Account Services at 1-877-829-5500.
Contributions you can deduct.
Contributions can be in cash (keep
canceled checks, receipts, or other
reliable written records showing the
name of the organization and the date
and amount given), property, or
out-of-pocket expenses you paid to do
volunteer work for the kinds of
organizations described earlier. If you
drove to and from the volunteer work,
you may take 14 cents a mile or the
actual cost of gas and oil. But, if the
volunteer work was to provide relief
related to Hurricane Katrina after
August 24, 2005, this amount is
increased to 29 cents a mile (34 cents
a mile after August 31, 2005). Add
parking and tolls to the amount you
claim under either method. But do not
deduct any amounts that were repaid to
you.
Gifts from which you benefit. If you
made a gift and received a benefit in
return, such as food, entertainment, or
merchandise, you can generally only
deduct the amount that is more than
the value of the benefit. But this rule
does not apply to certain membership
benefits provided in return for an
annual payment of $75 or less. For
details, see Pub. 526.
Example. You paid $70 to a
charitable organization to attend a
fund-raising dinner and the value of the
dinner was $40. You can deduct only
$30.
Gifts of $250 or more. You can
deduct a gift of $250 or more only if you
have a statement from the charitable
organization showing the information in
1 and 2 below.
In figuring whether a gift is $250 or
more, do not combine separate
donations. For example, if you gave
your church $25 each week for a total

-24-

of $1,300, treat each $25 payment as a
separate gift. If you made donations
through payroll deductions, treat each
deduction from each paycheck as a
separate gift. See Pub. 526 if you made
a separate gift of $250 or more through
payroll deduction.
1. The amount of any money
contributed and a description (but not
value) of any property donated.
2. Whether the organization did or
did not give you any goods or services
in return for your contribution. If you did
receive any goods or services, a
description and estimate of the value
must be included. If you received only
intangible religious benefits (such as
admission to a religious ceremony), the
organization must state this, but it does
not have to describe or value the
benefit.
You must get the statement by

TIP the date you file your return or
the due date (including
extensions) for filing your return,
whichever is earlier. Do not attach the
statement to your return. Instead, keep
it for your records.
Limit on the amount you can deduct.
See Pub. 526 to figure the amount of
your deduction if any of the following
apply.
1. Your cash contributions or
contributions of ordinary income
property are more than 30% of the
amount on Form 1040NR, line 36.
2. Your gifts of capital gain property
are more than 20% of the amount on
Form 1040NR, line 36.
3. You gave gifts of property that
increased in value or gave gifts of the
use of property.
The limit described in item (1)

TIP above does not apply to certain
cash contributions paid after
August 27, 2005, if you elect to treat
those contributions as qualified
contributions. See the instructions for
line 4b on this page for details.
Contributions you cannot deduct.
• Any contribution you made in
January, 2005, for the relief of victims
in areas affected by the December 26,
2004, Indian Ocean tsunami that you
elected to deduct on your 2004 return.
• Travel expenses (including meals
and lodging) while away from home,
unless there was no significant element
of personal pleasure, recreation, or
vacation in the travel.
• Political contributions.
• Dues, fees, or bills paid to country
clubs, lodges, fraternal orders, or
similar groups.
• Cost of raffle, bingo, or lottery tickets.
• Cost of tuition. But you may be able
to deduct this expense on line 9. See
page 26.

you may be able to deduct gifts to
certain U.S. organizations that transfer
funds to foreign charities and certain
Canadian, Israeli, and Mexican

Line 4a
Enter the total contributions you made
in cash or by check (including
out-of-pocket expenses).

Line 4b
In general, you can elect to treat gifts
by cash or check as qualified
contributions if the gifts were paid after
August 27, 2005, to a qualified
charitable organization (other than
certain private foundations described in
section 509(a)(3)). Qualified
contributions are not subject to the
overall limitation on itemized deductions
or the 50% adjusted gross income
limitation.
Qualified contributions do not include
contributions to organizations for which
cash gifts are subject to a limit based
on 30% of your adjusted gross income
(such as contributions to veterans’
organizations, fraternal societies,
nonprofit cemeteries, and certain
private nonoperating foundations). Also,
qualified contributions do not include
any contributions to a segregated fund
or account for which you (or any person
appointed or designated by you) have,
or reasonably expect to have, advisory
privileges with respect to distributions
or investments based on your
contribution.
Certain limits may apply if your
qualified contributions are more than
the amount on Form 1040NR, line 36,
minus all other allowable contributions.
For details, see Pub. 526.

vandalism, fire, storm, or similar
causes, and car, boat, and other
accidents. You may also be able to
deduct money you had in a financial
institution but lost because of the
insolvency or bankruptcy of the
institution.

If the amount of your deduction is
more than $500, you must complete
and attach Form 8283. For this
purpose, the “amount of your
deduction” means your deduction
before applying any income limits that
could result in a carryover of
contributions. If you deduct more than
$500 for a contribution of a motor
vehicle, boat, or airplane, you must also
attach a statement from the charitable
organization to your return. If your total
deduction is over $5,000, you may also
have to get appraisals of the values of
the donated property. See Form 8283
and its instructions for details.

You may deduct nonbusiness
casualty or theft losses only to the
extent that:
1. The amount of each separate
casualty or theft loss is more than
$100, and
2. The total amount of all losses
during the year (reduced by the $100
limit discussed in (1) above) is more
than 10% of the amount shown on
Form 1040NR, line 36.

Recordkeeping. If you gave
property, you should keep a receipt or
written statement from the organization
you gave the property to, or a reliable
written record, that shows the
organization’s name and address, the
date and location of the gift, and a
description of the property. For each
gift of property, you should also keep
reliable written records that include:
• How you figured the property’s value
at the time you gave it. If the value was
determined by an appraisal, keep a
signed copy of the appraisal.
• The cost or other basis of the
property if you must reduce it by any
ordinary income or capital gain that
would have resulted if the property had
been sold at its fair market value.
• How you figured your deduction if
you chose to reduce your deduction for
gifts of capital gain property.
• Any conditions attached to the gift.
If your total deduction for gifts of
property is over $500, you gave
CAUTION less than your entire interest in
the property, or you made a “qualified
conservation contribution,” your records
should contain additional information.
See Pub. 526 for details.

filing status box 3, 4, or 5).

Tax on Income Not
Effectively Connected
With a U.S. Trade or
Business (Page 4)
The following items are generally taxed
at 30% if they are not effectively
connected with your U.S. trade or
business. The rate may be lower if your
country of residence and the United
States have a treaty setting lower rates.
Table 1 in Pub. 901 summarizes which
countries have such treaties and what
the rates are.
The 30% tax applies only to amounts
included in gross income. For example,
the tax applies only to the part of a
periodic annuity or pension payment
that is subject to tax; it does not apply
to the part that is a return of your cost.
The following list gives only a
general idea of the type of income to
include on page 4. (For more
information, see Pub. 519.) Include the
following only to the extent the amount
received is not effectively connected
with the conduct of a trade or business
in the United States.
1. Income that is fixed or periodic,
such as interest (other than original
issue discount), dividends, rents,
salaries, wages, premiums, annuities,
other compensation, or alimony
received. Other items of income, such
as royalties, also may be subject to the
30% tax.
Exceptions. The following items of
interest and dividend income that you
received as a nonresident alien are
generally exempt from the 30% tax.
• Interest from a U.S. bank, savings
and loan association, or similar
institution, and from certain deposits
with U.S. insurance companies.
• Portfolio interest on obligations
issued after July 18, 1984.
• Interest-related dividends received
from a mutual fund.
• Short-term capital gain dividends
from a mutual fund only if you were
present in the United States for less
than 183 days during the tax year.
• U.S. source dividends paid by
certain foreign corporations.
For more information, see Pub. 519.
2. Gains, other than capital gains,
from the sale or exchange of patents,
copyrights, and other intangible
property.
3. Original issue discount (OID). If
you sold or exchanged the obligation,
include in income the OID that accrued
while you held the obligation minus the
amount previously included in income.
Instructions for Form 1040NR

If you received a payment on an OID
obligation, see Pub. 519.
4. Capital gains in excess of capital
losses from U.S. sources during 2005.
Include these gains only if you were in
the United States at least 183 days
during 2005. They are not subject to
U.S. tax if you were in the United
States less than 183 days during the
tax year. In determining your net gain,
do not use the capital loss carryover.
Losses from sales or exchanges of
capital assets in excess of similar gains
are not allowed.
If you had a gain or loss on
disposing of a U.S. real property
interest, see Dispositions of U.S. Real
Property Interests on page 6.
5. Prizes, awards, and certain
gambling winnings. Proceeds from
lotteries, raffles, etc., are gambling
winnings (see section 871(j) for
exceptions). You must report the full
amount of your winnings. You cannot
offset losses against winnings and
report the difference.
Note. Residents of Canada may claim
gambling losses, but only to the extent
of gambling winnings. They should
report both their total gambling
winnings and their total gambling losses
on the dotted line on line 84 (or attach a
separate schedule if more space is
needed). If they have net gambling
winnings (after offsetting their total
gambling losses against their total
gambling winnings), they should include
this net amount on line 84, column (d).
Social security benefits (and tier 1
railroad retirement benefits treated
as social security). 85% of the U.S.
social security and equivalent railroad
retirement benefits you received are
taxable. This amount is treated as U.S.
source income not effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or
business. It is subject to the 30% tax
rate, unless exempt or taxed at a
reduced rate under a U.S. tax treaty.
Social security benefits include any
monthly benefit under title II of the
Social Security Act or the part of a tier 1
railroad retirement benefit treated as a
social security benefit. They do not
include any Supplemental Security
Income (SSI) payments.
You should receive a
Form SSA-1042S showing the total
social security benefits paid to you in
2005 and the amount of any benefits
you repaid in 2005. If you received
railroad retirement benefits treated as
social security, you should receive a
Form RRB-1042S.
Enter 85% of the total amount from
box 5 of all of your Forms SSA-1042S
and Forms RRB-1042S in the
appropriate column of line 82 of

-27-

Form 1040NR. Enter any federal tax
withheld in column (a) of line 82. Attach
a copy of each Form SSA-1042S and
RRB-1042S to Form 1040NR.
Withholding of tax at the source. Tax
must be withheld at the source on
certain income from U.S. sources paid
to nonresident aliens. The withholding
is generally at the 30% rate. There are
exceptions to the general rule, and tax
treaties with various countries may
provide a lower rate or exempt certain
income from withholding. The tax must
be withheld by the person who pays
fixed or determinable annual or periodic
income to nonresident aliens. The
income subject to this withholding
should be reported on page 4 of
Form 1040NR. For details, see
Pub. 519, Pub. 515, and section 1441
and its regulations.

If the amount you owe or the amount
you overpaid is large, you may be able
to file a new Form W-4 with your
employer to change the amount of
income tax withheld from your 2006
pay. For details on how to complete
Form W-4, see the Instructions for
Form 8233.
In general, you do not have to make
estimated tax payments if you expect
that your 2006 Form 1040NR will show
a tax refund or a tax balance due the
IRS of less than $1,000. If your total
estimated tax (including any household
employment taxes or alternative
minimum tax) for 2006 is $1,000 or
more, see Form 1040-ES(NR). It has a
worksheet you can use to see if you
have to make estimated tax payments.
However, if you expect to be a resident
of Puerto Rico during all of 2006 and
you must pay estimated tax, use
Form 1040-ES.

Gift To Reduce Debt Held By
the Public

Reminders
Sign and Date Your Return
Form 1040NR is not considered a valid
return unless you sign it. You can have
an agent in the United States prepare
and sign your return if you could not do
so for one of the following reasons:
• You were ill.
• You were not in the United States at
any time during the 60 days before the
return was due.
• For other reasons that you explained
in writing to the Internal Revenue
Service Center, Philadelphia, PA
19255, U.S.A., and that the IRS
approved.
A return prepared by an agent must
be accompanied by a power of
attorney. Form 2848 may be used for
this purpose.
Be sure to date your return and
show your occupation in the United
States in the space provided. If you
have someone prepare your return, you
are still responsible for the correctness
of the return.
Child’s return. If your child cannot
sign the return, you can sign the child’s
name in the space provided. Then, add
“By (your signature), parent for minor
child.”
Paid preparer must sign your return.
Generally, anyone you pay to prepare
your return must sign it in the space
provided. The preparer must give you a
copy of the return for your records.
Someone who prepares your return but
does not charge you should not sign
your return.

If you wish to make such a gift, make a
check payable to “Bureau of the Public
Debt.” You can send it to: Bureau of the
Public Debt, Department G, P.O. Box
2188, Parkersburg, WV 26106-2188. Or
you can enclose the check with your
income tax return when you file. Do not
add your gift to any tax you may owe.
See page 23 for details on how to pay
any tax you owe.
You may be able to deduct this

TIP gift on your 2006 tax return as a
charitable contribution.

Address Change
If you move after filing your return,
always notify the IRS of your new
address. To do this, use Form 8822.

How Long Should Records Be
Kept?
Keep a copy of your tax return,
worksheets you used, and records of all
items appearing on it (such as Forms
W-2, 1099, and 1042-S) until the
statute of limitations runs out for that
return. Usually, this is 3 years from the
date the return was due or filed, or 2
years from the date the tax was paid,
whichever is later. You should keep
some records longer. For example,
keep property records (including those
on your home) as long as they are
needed to figure the basis of the
original or replacement property. For
more details, see Pub. 552.

Amended Return
File Form 1040X to change a return
you already filed. Also, use
Form 1040X if you filed Form 1040NR

and you should have filed a Form 1040,
1040A, or 1040EZ, or vice versa.
Generally, Form 1040X must be filed
within 3 years after the date the original
return was filed, or within 2 years after
the date the tax was paid, whichever is
later. But you may have more time to
file Form 1040X if you are physically or
mentally unable to manage your
financial affairs. See Pub. 556 for
details.

Requesting a Copy of Your Tax
Return
If you need a copy of your tax return,
use Form 4506. There is a $39 fee for
each return requested. If your main
home, principal place of business, or
tax records are located in a
Presidentially declared disaster area,
this fee will be waived. If you want a
free transcript of your tax return or
account, use Form 4506-T or call us at
1-800-829-1040.

Interest and Penalties
You do not have to figure the amount of
any interest or penalties you may owe.
Because figuring these amounts can be
complicated, we will do it for you if you
want. We will send you a bill for any
amount due.
If you include interest or penalties
(other than the estimated tax penalty)
with your payment, identify and enter
the amount in the bottom margin of
Form 1040NR, page 2. Do not include
interest or penalties (other than the
estimated tax penalty) in the amount
you owe on line 73.
Interest. We will charge you interest
on taxes not paid by their due date,
even if an extension of time to file is
granted. We will also charge you
interest on penalties imposed for failure
to file, negligence, fraud, substantial
valuation misstatements, substantial
understatements of tax, and reportable
transaction understatements. Interest is
charged on the penalty from the due
date of the return (including
extensions).
Penalty for late filing. If you do not
file your return by the due date
(including extensions), the penalty is
usually 5% of the amount due for each
month or part of a month your return is
late, unless you have a reasonable
explanation. If you do, attach it to your
return. The penalty can be as much as
25% (more in some cases) of the tax
due. If your return is more than 60 days
late, the minimum penalty will be $100
or the amount of any tax you owe,
whichever is smaller.
Penalty for late payment of tax. If
you pay your taxes late, the penalty is
usually 1/2 of 1% of the unpaid amount
for each month or part of a month the
tax is not paid. The penalty can be as
Instructions for Form 1040NR

much as 25% of the unpaid amount. It
applies to any unpaid tax on the return.
This penalty is in addition to interest
charges on late payments.
Penalty for frivolous return. In
addition to any other penalties, the law
imposes a penalty of $500 for filing a
frivolous return. A frivolous return is one
that does not contain information
needed to figure the correct tax or
shows a substantially incorrect tax
because you take a frivolous position or
desire to delay or interfere with the tax
laws. This includes altering or striking
out the preprinted language above the
space where you sign.
Other penalties. Other penalties can
be imposed for negligence, substantial
understatement of tax, reportable
transaction understatements, and fraud.
Criminal penalties may be imposed for
willful failure to file, tax evasion, or
making a false statement. See Pub.
519 for details on some of these
penalties.

Taxpayer Assistance
IRS assistance is available to help you
prepare your return. But you should
know that you are responsible for the
accuracy of your return. If we do make
an error, you are still responsible for the
payment of the correct tax.

change the tax law or make a technical
tax decision, they can clear up
problems that resulted from previous
contacts and ensure that your case is
given a complete and impartial review.
To contact your Taxpayer Advocate:
• If you are in the United States, call
their toll-free number: 1-877-777-4778.
TTY/TDD help is available by calling
1-800-829-4059.

(English-speaking only) or
01-787-622-8930 (Spanish-speaking

Advocate at the IRS office that last
contacted you (or contact one of the
overseas IRS offices listed on this
page).

Disclosure, Privacy Act, and
Paperwork Reduction Act Notice.
The IRS Restructuring and Reform Act
of 1998 requires that we tell you the
conditions under which return
information may be disclosed to any
party outside the Internal Revenue
Service. We ask for the information on
this form to carry out the Internal
Revenue laws of the United States.
You are required to give us the
information. We need the information to
ensure that you are complying with
these laws and to allow us to figure and

Page 30 of 45

Instructions for Form 1040NR

collect the right amount of tax. Section
6109 requires paid return preparers to
provide their identifying number.
This notice applies to all papers you
file with us, including this tax return. It
also applies to any questions we need
to ask you so we can complete, correct,
or process your return; figure your tax;
and collect tax, interest, or penalties.
You are not required to provide the
information requested on a form that is
subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act
unless the form displays a valid OMB
control number. Books or records
relating to a form or its instructions
must be retained as long as their
contents may become material in the
administration of any Internal Revenue
law.
Generally, tax returns and return
information are confidential, as required
by section 6103. However, section
6103 allows or requires the Internal
Revenue Service to disclose or give the
information you write on your tax return
to others as described in the Code. For
example, we may disclose your tax
information to the Department of
Justice, to enforce the tax laws, both
civil and criminal, and to cities, states,
the District of Columbia, U.S.
commonwealths or possessions, and
certain foreign governments to carry out
their tax laws. We may disclose your
tax information to the Department of
Treasury and contractors for tax
administration purposes; and to other
persons as necessary to obtain
information that we cannot get in any
other way in order to determine the

amount of or to collect the tax you owe.
We may disclose your tax information
to the Comptroller General of the
United States to permit the Comptroller
General to review the Internal Revenue
Service. We may disclose your tax
information to Committees of Congress;
federal, state, and local child support
agencies; and to other federal agencies
for purposes of determining entitlement
for benefits or the eligibility for and the
repayment of loans. We may also
disclose this information to other
countries under a tax treaty, or to
federal and state agencies to enforce
federal nontax criminal laws, or to
federal law enforcement and
intelligence agencies to combat
terrorism.
Keep this notice with your records. It
may help you if we ask you for other
information. If you have any questions
about the rules for filing and giving
information, call or visit any Internal
Revenue Service office.
We welcome comments on forms.
If you have comments concerning the
accuracy of these time estimates or
suggestions for making this form
simpler, we would be happy to hear
from you. You can email us at
*[email protected]. Please put “Forms
Comment” on the subject line. Or you
can write to the Internal Revenue
Service, Tax Products Coordinating
Committee, SE:W:CAR:MP:T:T:SP,
1111 Constitution Ave. NW, IR-6406,
Washington, DC 20224. Do not send
your return to this address. Instead, see
Where To File on page 4.

Estimates of taxpayer burden. The
new estimates of taxpayer burden
shown below were developed by the
IRS to better measure and understand
the burden taxpayers experience when
preparing their taxes. These estimates
of average preparation times and
out-of-pocket expenses are based on a
new survey of taxpayers and a more
accurate method of estimating taxpayer
burden. They focus on taxpayer
characteristics and activities, rather
than forms, and replace the burden
estimates shown in prior year tax form
instructions. The information collected
to figure the new estimates includes
type of taxpayer, preparation method,
filing method, and taxpayer activities.
The new estimates shown here are
grouped by principal combinations of
forms submitted and are not available
separately for each form.
These changes create a one-time
shift in estimates of burden levels.
Comparisons should not be made
between these and earlier published
estimates.
If you have comments concerning
the time and expense estimates below,
you can contact us at the address
shown under We welcome comments
on forms.
These estimates were the latest
available when the forms went to print.
The most current information can be
found on the IRS website at
www.irs.gov.

CAUTION

Example. Mr. Green is filing as a qualifying widower. His taxable income on line 40
of Form 1040NR is $25,300. First, he finds the $25,300–25,350 income line. Next,
he finds the column for qualifying widower and reads down the column. The
amount shown where the income line and filing status column meet is $3,069. This
is the tax amount he must enter on line 41 of his Form 1040NR.
