Caution: DRAFT—NOT FOR FILING

This is an early release draft of an IRS tax form, instructions, or publication,
which the IRS is providing for your information. Do not file draft forms. We
incorporate all significant changes to forms posted with this coversheet.
However, unexpected issues occasionally arise, or legislation is passed—in this
case, we will post a new draft of the form to alert users that changes were made
to the previously posted draft. Thus, there are never any changes to the last
posted draft of a form and the final revision of the form. Forms and instructions
are subject to OMB approval before they can be officially released, so we post
drafts of them until they are approved. Drafts of instructions and pubs usually
have some additional changes before their final release. Early release drafts are
at IRS.gov/DraftForms and remain there after the final release is posted at
IRS.gov/LatestForms. Also see IRS.gov/Forms.
Most forms and publications have a page on IRS.gov: IRS.gov/Form1040 for
Form 1040; IRS.gov/Pub501 for Pub. 501; IRS.gov/W4 for Form W-4; and
IRS.gov/ScheduleA for Schedule A (Form 1040), for example, and similarly for
other forms, pubs, and schedules for Form 1040. When typing in a link, type it
into the address bar of your browser, not a Search box on IRS.gov.
If you wish, you can submit comments to the IRS about draft or final forms,
instructions, or pubs at IRS.gov/FormsComments. Include “NTF” followed by the
form or pub number (for example, “NTF1040”, “NTFW4”, “NTF501”, etc.) in the
body of the message to route your message properly. We cannot respond to all
comments due to the high volume we receive and may not be able to consider
many suggestions until the subsequent revision of the product, but we will
review each “NTF” message. If you have comments on reducing paperwork and
respondent (filer) burden, with respect to draft or final forms, please respond to
the relevant information collection through the Federal Register process; for

Reminders
Use your 2024 tax return as a guide in figuring your 2025 tax,
but be sure to consider the following.
Continuous-use Form 1040-C. Form 1040-C is a
continuous-use form. Filers will make an entry at the top of
the form to identify the tax year.
We will revise these instructions annually to show
inflation-adjusted items for various Code provisions.
Former U.S. citizens and former U.S. long-term residents. If you relinquished your citizenship or ended your
long-term residency (expatriated) in 2025, you must file Form
8854, Initial and Annual Expatriation Statement, with your
2025 income tax return. You may also be subject to income
tax under section 877A on the net unrealized gain in your
property as if the property had been sold for its fair martket
value on the day before your expatriation date. You figure this
tax on Form 8854. For more details, see Form 8854 and its
instructions at IRS.gov/Form8854. Also, see Pub. 519, U.S.
Tax Guide for Aliens.
Social security or Medicare tax withheld in error. If you
are a foreign student on an F-1, J-1, M, or Q visa, and social
security or Medicare tax was withheld on your wages in error,
you may want to file Form 843, Claim for Refund or Request
for Abatement, to request a refund of these taxes. For more
information, see Nonresident Alien Students and Refund of
Taxes Withheld in Error in chapter 8 of Pub. 519.
Child tax credit not refundable for resident aliens electing to exclude foreign earned income from tax. Group I
Dec 13, 2024

(resident alien) filers who exclude foreign earned income
from their gross income may not claim any additional child
tax credit on line 29. These filers are only allowed to claim the
child tax credit to the extent allowable on line 20.

Individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN) renewal. For tax year 2025, ITINs that were not included on at least
one tax return filed in the last 3 consecutive tax years (2022,
2023, or 2024) will expire on December 31, 2025. For more
information, go to IRS.gov/ITIN. If you need to renew your
ITIN, see the Instructions for Form W-7 at IRS.gov/FormW7.
Social security number (SSN) required for child tax
credit. Your child must have an SSN issued before the due
date of your 2025 return (including extensions) to be claimed
as a qualifying child for the child tax credit or additional child
tax credit. If your dependent child has an ITIN, but not an
SSN, issued before the due date of your 2025 return
(including extensions), you may be able to claim the credit for
other dependents for that child.

General Instructions
Purpose of Form

Form 1040-C is used by aliens who intend to leave the United
States or any of its territories to:
• Report income received or expected to be received for the
entire tax year; and
• Pay the expected tax liability on that income, if they are
required to do so.
Form 1040-C must be filed before an alien leaves the
United States or any of its territories. For more information,
see How To Get the Certificate, later.
If you are a nonresident alien, use the current

TIP Instructions for Form 1040-NR, U.S. Nonresident

Alien Income Tax Return, to help you complete Form
1040-C.
If you are a resident alien, use the current

TIP Instructions for Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income
Tax Return, to help you complete Form 1040-C.

You can get tax forms, instructions, and publications from
the IRS. See Additional information, later.
Alien status rules. If you are not a citizen of the United
States, specific rules apply to determine if you are a resident
or nonresident alien for income tax purposes. Intent generally
is not a factor in determining your residency status.
You are considered a resident alien if you meet either the
green card test or the substantial presence test. However,
even though you would otherwise meet the substantial
presence test, you will not be considered a U.S. resident if
you qualify for the closer connection to a foreign country
exception or you are able to qualify as a nonresident alien by
reason of a tax treaty. These tests and the exception are

Nonresident Alien, later.

Final Return Required

A Form 1040-C is not a final return. You must file a final
income tax return after your tax year ends.
If you are a U.S. citizen or resident alien on the last day of
the year, you should file Form 1040 (or 1040-SR) reporting
your worldwide income. If you are not a U.S. citizen or
resident alien on the last day of the year, you should file Form
1040-NR. However, certain individuals who were resident
aliens at the beginning of the tax year but nonresident aliens
at the end of the tax year must file a “dual-status” return. See
Dual-status tax year, later.

for this exception, you must have an F-1, F-2, H-3, H-4, J-1,
J-2, or Q visa. Additionally, you must not have received any
income from sources in the United States other than:
a. Allowances covering expenses incident to your study
or training in the United States (including expenses for travel,
maintenance, and tuition);
b. The value of any services or accommodations
furnished incident to such study or training;
c. Income from employment authorized under U.S.
immigration laws; or
d. Interest on deposits, but only if that interest is not
effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business.
3. You are a student, or the spouse or child of a student,
with an M-1 or M-2 visa. To qualify, you must not have
received any income from sources in the United States other
than:
a. Income from employment authorized under U.S.
immigration laws; or
b. Interest on deposits, but only if that interest is not
effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business.
4. Any of the following applies.
a. You are on a pleasure trip and have a B-2 visa.
b. You are on a business trip, have a B-1 visa or a
combined B-1/B-2 visa, and do not stay in the United States
or any of its territories for more than 90 days during the tax
year.
c. You are passing through the United States or any of its
territories, including travel on a C-1 visa or under a contract,
such as a bond agreement, between a transportation line and
the U.S. Attorney General.
d. You are admitted on a border-crossing identification
card.
e. You do not need to carry passports, visas, or
border-crossing identification cards because you are (i)
visiting for pleasure, or (ii) visiting for business and do not
stay in the United States or any of its territories for more than
90 days during the tax year.
f. You are a resident of Canada or Mexico who
commutes frequently to the United States to work and your
wages are subject to income tax withholding.
g. You are a military trainee admitted for instruction under
the Department of Defense and you will leave the United
States on official military travel orders.

Any tax you pay with Form 1040-C counts as a credit
against tax on your final return. Any overpayment shown on
Form 1040-C will be refunded only if and to the extent your
final return for the tax year shows an overpayment.

Note. There are some tax items that are not addressed on
Form 1040-C or in these instructions that must be taken into
account on your final return. For example, if you are a Group I
(resident alien) filer, you must reconcile any advance
payments of the premium tax credit with the premium tax
credit allowed on your tax return. See Form 8962, Premium
Tax Credit, and its instructions for more information.

Certificate of Compliance

The issuance of a certificate of compliance is not a
final determination of your tax liability. If it is later
CAUTION determined that you owe more tax, you will have to
pay the additional tax due.

Form 1040-C or Form 2063. If you are an alien, you should
not leave the United States or any of its territories without
getting a certificate of compliance from your IRS Field
Assistance Area Director on Form 1040-C or Form 2063, U.S.
Departing Alien Income Tax Statement, unless you meet one
of the exceptions, explained later.
You can file the shorter Form 2063 if you have filed all U.S.
income tax returns you were required to file, you paid any tax
due, and either of the following applies.
• You have no taxable income for the year of departure and
for the preceding year (if the time for filing the earlier year's
return has not passed).
• You are a resident alien with taxable income for the
preceding year or for the year of departure, but the Area
Director has decided that your leaving will not hinder
collecting the tax.
Exceptions. You do not need a certificate of compliance if
any of the following applies.
1. You are a representative of a foreign government who
holds a diplomatic passport, a member of the
representative's household, a servant who accompanies the
representative, an employee of an international organization
or foreign government whose pay for official services is
exempt from U.S. taxes and who has no other U.S. source
income, or a member of the employee's household who has
no income from U.S. sources. However, if you signed a
waiver of nonimmigrant's privileges as a condition of holding
both your job and your status as an immigrant, this exception
does not apply and you must get a certificate.
2. You are a student, an industrial trainee, or an exchange
visitor, or the spouse or child of such an individual. To qualify

However, exception 4 does not apply if the Area Director
believes you had taxable income during the current tax year
through your departure date or the preceding tax year and
your leaving the United States would hinder collecting the
tax.

How To Get the Certificate

To get a certificate of compliance, you must obtain a sailing
or departure permit. To obtain a permit, file Form 1040-C or
Form 2063 (whichever applies) with your local IRS Taxpayer
Assistance Center (TAC) office before you leave the United
States.
Note that all TAC offices operate by appointment. You
can call 844-545-5640 between the hours of 7 a.m.
CAUTION and 7 p.m. local time to make an appointment. For
more information regarding your local TAC office, go to

departure if it believes the collection of income tax is
jeopardized by that later departure.

If you are filing Form 1040-C, file an original and one copy
for the tax year in which you plan to leave. If you are
departing between January 1, 2025, and April 15, 2025, you
must also file Form 1040-NR, 1040, or 1040-SR for 2025 and
pay any tax due.
Generally, a certificate of compliance on Form 1040-C will
be issued without your paying tax or posting bond if you have
not received a termination assessment. A termination
assessment is a demand for immediate payment of income
tax for the current year and the immediately preceding year.
This certificate applies to all of your departures during the
current tax year, subject to revocation on any later departure
if the Area Director believes your leaving would hinder
collecting the tax.
If you owe income tax and the Area Director determines
that your departure will jeopardize the collection of the tax, a
certificate of compliance on Form 1040-C will be issued only
when you pay the tax due or post bond. The certificate will
apply only to the departure for which it is issued.
For additional information, go to IRS.gov/Individuals/
International-Taxpayers/Departing-Alien-Clearance-SailingPermit.

When To Get a Sailing or Departure Permit

You should get your sailing or departure permit at least 2
weeks before you plan to leave. You cannot apply earlier than
30 days before your planned departure date. Do not wait
until the last minute in case there are unexpected problems.

Forms To File

If you must get a sailing or departure permit, you must file
Form 2063 or Form 1040-C. Both forms have a “certificate of
compliance” section. When the certificate of compliance is
signed by an agent of the Field Assistance Area Director, it
certifies that your U.S. tax obligations have been satisfied
according to available information. Your Form 1040-C copy of
the signed certificate, or the one detached from Form 2063,
is your sailing or departure permit.

Form 2063
This is a short form that asks for certain information but does
not include a tax computation. The following departing aliens
can get their sailing or departure permits by filing Form 2063.
• Aliens, whether resident or nonresident, who have had no
taxable income for the tax year up to and including the date
of departure and for the preceding year, if the period for filing
the income tax return for that year has not expired.
• Resident aliens who have received taxable income during
the tax year or preceding year and whose departure will not
hinder the collection of any tax. However, if the IRS has
information indicating that the aliens are leaving to avoid
paying their income tax, they must file a Form 1040-C.

Form 1040-C

If you must get a sailing or departure permit and you do not
qualify to file Form 2063, you must file Form 1040-C.
Ordinarily, all income received or reasonably expected to be
received during the tax year up to and including the date of
departure must be reported on Form 1040-C and the tax on it
must be paid. When you pay any tax shown as due on the
Form 1040-C, and you file all returns and pay all tax due for
previous years, you will receive a sailing or departure permit.

If the tax is being paid, you must bring the payment in

TIP the form of certified funds (cashier’s check, certified

bank or postal money order, or cash). Check your
local TAC office for payment options.
The IRS may permit you to furnish a bond

TIP guaranteeing payment instead of paying the taxes

for certain years. The sailing or departure permit
issued under the conditions in this paragraph is only for the
specific departure for which it is issued.

If you are a lawful permanent resident alien (green
card holder) with no definite plans to return to the
CAUTION United States, you must notify the Department of
Homeland Security of your termination of residency and file
Form 8854 if you:

!

• Plan to surrender your green card; and
• Have been a lawful permanent resident in at least 8 of the

last 15 tax years ending with the year you are no longer
treated as a lawful permanent resident. In determining if you
meet the 8-year requirement, don't count any year if in that
year you were treated as a resident of a foreign country under
a tax treaty and did not waive treaty benefits applicable to
residents of that country.
See Expatriation Tax in Pub. 519 for more detailed
information.
Joint return on Form 1040-C. Departing spouses who are
nonresident aliens cannot file joint returns. However, if one
spouse is a resident alien, they can file a joint return on Form
1040-C if:
• Both spouses can reasonably be expected to qualify to file
a joint return at the normal close of their tax years, and
• The tax years of both spouses end at the same time.
Filling annual U.S. income tax returns. Form 1040-C is
not an annual U.S. income tax return. If an income tax return
is required by law, that return must be filed even though a
Form 1040-C has already been filed. The tax paid with Form
1040-C should be taken as a credit against the tax liability for
the entire tax year on your annual U.S. income tax return.

Aliens in either of these categories who have not filed an
income tax return or paid income tax for any tax year must

departure permit for any later departure if the payment of
income tax appears to be in jeopardy.

Paying Taxes and Obtaining Refunds

Except when a bond is furnished, or the IRS is satisfied that
your departure does not jeopardize the collection of income
tax, you must pay all tax shown as due on the Form 1040-C
at the time of filing it. You must also pay any taxes due for
past years. If the tax computation on Form 1040-C results in
an overpayment, there is no tax to pay at the time you file that
return. However, the IRS cannot provide a refund at the time
of departure. If you are due a refund, you must file Form 1040
or Form 1040-NR, as appropriate, at the end of the tax year.

Returning to the United States

If you furnish the IRS with information showing, to the
satisfaction of the IRS, that you intend to return to the United
States and that your departure does not jeopardize the
collection of income tax, you can get a sailing or departure
permit by filing Form 1040-C without having to pay the tax
shown on it. You must, however, file all income tax returns
that have not yet been filed as required, and pay all income
tax that is due on these returns.

If the tax is being paid, you must bring the payment in

TIP the form of certified funds (cashier’s check, certified

bank or postal money order, or cash). Check your
local TAC office for payment options.

Specific Instructions

Joint return. Nonresident aliens cannot file a joint return.
Resident aliens can file a joint return on Form 1040-C only if
both of the following apply.
1. The alien and their spouse reasonably expect to be
eligible to file a joint return at the close of the tax period for
which the return is made.
2. If the tax period of the alien is terminated, the tax
period of their spouse is terminated at the same time.
If Form 1040-C is filed as a joint return, enter both
spouses' names, identification numbers, and passport or
alien registration card numbers in the spaces provided on
page 1 of the form. Also, include both spouses' income in
Part III and furnish both spouses' information in Part I of the
form. It may be necessary to complete a separate Part I for
each spouse.

Identifying number. You must enter your identifying
number where requested at the top of page 1 of Form
1040-C. Generally, this is your SSN. If you do not have an
SSN, contact the Social Security Administration (SSA) to find
out if you are eligible for one. For more information, go to
SSA.gov or call 800-772-1213 (for the deaf or hard of
hearing, call the TTY number, 800-325-0778).
ITIN. If you do not have an SSN and are not eligible to get

Status—Resident or Nonresident
Alien

Generally, you are considered a resident alien if you meet
either the green card test or the substantial presence test for
2025. You are considered a nonresident alien for the year if
you do not meet either of these tests. For more information
on resident and nonresident alien status, see Pub. 519.

• Days you intended, but were unable, to leave the United
States because of a medical condition or medical problem
that arose while you were in the United States.
• Days you are in the United States under a NATO visa as a
member of a force or civilian component to NATO. However,
this exception does not apply to an immediate family member
who is present in the United States under a NATO visa. A
dependent family member must count every day of presence
for purposes of the substantial presence test.
• Days you were an exempt individual. In general, an exempt

Green card test. You are a resident alien for tax purposes if
you are a lawful permanent resident of the United States at
any time during 2025. You are a lawful permanent resident of
the United States if you have been given the privilege, under
U.S. immigration laws, of residing permanently in the United
States as an immigrant. You generally have this status if you
have been issued an alien registration card, also known as a
green card, and your green card hasn't been revoked or
judicially or administratively determined to have been
abandoned. However, you are also no longer treated as a
lawful permanent resident if you (1) commenced to be
treated as a resident of a foreign country under the provisions
of a tax treaty, (2) did not waive the benefits of such treaty,
and (3) notified the IRS of the commencement of such
treatment. See Regulations section 301.7701(b)-7 for
information on related filing requirements. See Residence
determined by tax treaty, later.

Substantial presence test. You are considered a resident
alien for tax purposes if you meet the substantial presence
test for 2025. You meet this test if you were physically present
in the United States for at least:
• 31 days during 2025; and
• 183 days during the period 2025, 2024, and 2023, using

Days of presence in the United States. 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, you do not count the following days of
presence in the United States for the substantial presence
test.
• Days you commuted to work in the United States from a
residence in Canada or Mexico if you regularly commuted
from Canada or Mexico.
• Days you were in the United States for less than 24 hours
while you were traveling between two places outside the
United States.
• Days you were temporarily present in the United States as

Residence determined by tax treaty. If you are a
dual-resident taxpayer, you can still claim the benefits under
an income tax treaty on Form 8833, Treaty-Based Return
Position Disclosure Under Section 6114 or 7701(b). A
dual-resident taxpayer is one who is a resident of both the
United States and another country under each country's tax
laws. The income tax treaty between the two countries must
contain a provision that provides for resolution of conflicting
claims of residence (tie-breaker rule). If you are treated as a
resident of a foreign country under a tax treaty, you are
treated as a nonresident alien in figuring your U.S. income
tax. For purposes other than figuring your tax, you will be
treated as a U.S. resident.
For more information, go to IRS.gov/Individuals/

TIP International-Taxpayers/Tax-Treaties.

Dual-status tax year. A dual-status tax year is one in which
you have been both a resident alien and a nonresident alien.
The most common dual-status tax years are the years of
arrival and departure. In figuring your income tax liability for a
dual-status tax year, different U.S. income tax rules apply to
each status. You must follow these rules in completing Form
1040-C. See the Instructions for Form 1040-NR for details.
Certain resident aliens who leave the United States
during the year may be subject to tax under section
CAUTION 877A. These resident aliens compute their tax using
the method prescribed under section 877A when completing
Form 1040-C. See Form 8854 and its instructions. Also, see
chapter 4 of Pub. 519 for more information.

Income effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business—nonresident aliens. If you are a nonresident alien,
the tax on your income depends on whether the income is or
is not effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business.
Income effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business
(including wages earned by an employee) is taxed at the
graduated rates that apply to U.S. citizens and resident
aliens. Income you receive as a partner in a partnership or as
a beneficiary of an estate or trust is considered effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or business if the partnership,
estate, or trust conducts a U.S. trade or business.
Income from U.S. sources that is not effectively connected
with a U.S. trade or business is generally taxed at 30%. Your
rate may be lower if the country of which you are a resident
and the United States have a treaty setting lower rates.
For a list of the types of income not considered effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or business, see the instructions
for Schedule A—Income and Schedule B—Certain Gains
and Losses From Sales or Exchanges by Nonresident Aliens
of Property Not Effectively Connected With a U.S. Trade or
Business, later. If you are a nonresident alien in the United
States to study or train, see Pub. 519.

Do not leave the question unanswered. You must answer
“Yes” or “No” by checking the appropriate box. For more
information, go to IRS.gov/VirtualCurrencyFaqs.
How to report digital assets transactions. If you
disposed of any digital asset in 2025, that you held as a
capital asset, through a sale, exchange, or transfer, check
“Yes” and use Form 8949, Sales and other Dispositions of
Capital Assets, to calculate your capital gain or loss and
report that gain or loss on Schedule D (Form 1040).
If you received any digital asset as compensation for
services or disposed of any digital asset that you held for sale
to customers in a trade or business, you must report the
income as you would report other income of the same type
(for example, W-2 wages on Form 1040-C, Schedule A,
line 1).
If you disposed of any digital asset by gift, you may be
required to file Form 709. See Who Must File and Transfers
Subject to the Gift Tax in the Instructions for Form 709, for

Line 13. Digital assets. Digital assets are any digital
representations of value that are recorded on a
cryptographically secured distributed ledger or any similar
technology. For example, digital assets include non-fungible
tokens (NFTs) and virtual currencies, such as
cryptocurrencies and stablecoins. If a particular asset has the
characteristics of a digital asset, it will be treated as a digital
asset for federal income tax purposes.
Check the “Yes” box for line 13 if at any time during 2025,
you:
• Received (as a reward, award, or payment for property or
services); or
• Sold, exchanged, or otherwise disposed of a digital asset
(or any financial interest in any digital asset).
For example, check “Yes” if at any time during 2025 you:
• Received digital assets as payment for property or
services provided;
• Received digital assets as a result of a reward or award;
• Received new digital assets as a result of mining, staking,
and similar activities;
• Received digital assets as a result of a hard fork;
• Disposed of digital assets in exchange for property or
services;
• Disposed of a digital asset in exchange or trade for another
digital asset;
• Sold a digital asset; or
• Otherwise disposed of any other financial interest in a
digital asset.
You have a financial interest in a digital asset if you are the
owner of record of a digital asset, or have an ownership stake
in an account that holds one or more digital assets, including
the rights and obligations to acquire a financial interest, or
you own a wallet that holds digital assets.
The following actions or transactions in 2025, alone,
generally don’t require you to check “Yes.”
• Holding a digital asset in a wallet or account.
• Transferring a digital asset from one wallet or account you
own or control to another wallet or account that you own or
control.
• Purchasing digital assets using U.S. or other real currency,
including through the use of electronic platforms such as
PayPal and Venmo.

Part II—Dependents

You may be able to claim a tax credit for your dependents. To
find out if a person qualifies as your dependent, and to find
out if your dependent qualifies you to take the child tax credit
or the credit for other dependents, see the Instructions for
Form 1040 or the Instructions for Form 1040-NR.

Line 15, column (b). You must enter each dependent's
SSN or ITIN. See Identifying number, earlier.

Line 15, column (d). Check the appropriate box in this
column if your dependent is a qualifying child for the child tax
credit or for the credit for other dependents.

Part III—Figuring Your Income Tax

Read the descriptions on line 1 of Form 1040-C for Groups I,
II, and III to see which group(s) applies to you. If Group I or II
applies, use lines 16 through 23 to figure your tax. If Group III
applies, use lines 24 and 25 to figure your tax. If you are a
nonresident alien to which both Groups II and III apply, use
lines 16 through 25 to figure your tax.
Line 17. Adjustments. If you are a resident alien, you can
take the adjustments allowed on Form 1040 (or 1040-SR).
The current Instructions for Form 1040 have information on
adjustments you can take.
If you are a nonresident alien and have income effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or business, you can take the
adjustments allowed on Form 1040-NR. See the Instructions
for Form 1040-NR.
If you are a nonresident alien and all your income is not
effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business, you
cannot take any adjustments.
Adjustments that you take on line 17 include the qualified
business income deduction and the excess business loss
adjustment figured on Form 461, Limitation on Business
Losses.
• Qualified business income deduction. Generally,
taxpayers other than corporations are allowed a deduction of
up to 20% of their qualified business income from a qualified
trade or business. The deduction is subject to multiple
limitations such as the type of trade or business, the
taxpayer's taxable income, the amount of W-2 wages paid
with respect to the qualified trade or business, and the
unadjusted basis of qualified property held by the trade or
business. The deduction can be taken in addition to the
Instructions for Form 1040-C (Rev. 01-2025)

standard or itemized deductions. For more information, see
Form 8995, Qualified Business Income Deduction Simplified
Computation, and Form 8995-A, Qualified Business Income
Deduction, and their instructions.
• Excess business loss adjustment. Excess business
losses for noncorporate taxpayers are limited to tax years
beginning after 2020 and before 2029. Also, excess business
losses are now computed without regard to any deduction
allowed under section 172 or 199A and without regard to any
deductions, gross income, or gains attributable to any trade
or business of performing services as an employee. See
Form 461 and its instructions for more information.

• Tax from recapture of investment credit. Use Form
4255, Recapture of Investment Credit, to figure the tax.
• Tax from recapture of low-income housing credit. Use
Form 8611, Recapture of Low-Income Housing Credit, to
figure the tax.
• Tax from recapture of federal mortgage subsidy. Use
Form 8828, Recapture of Federal Mortgage Subsidy, to
figure the tax.
• Repayment of first-time homebuyer credit. You must
repay the first-time homebuyer credit if you bought the home
in 2008. For details about repaying the first-time homebuyer
credit, see the Instructions for Form 5405.

Line 20. Credits. If you are a Group I (resident alien) filer,
you can claim the same credits as on Form 1040 (or
1040-SR). If you are a Group II (nonresident alien with
income effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business)
filer, you can generally claim the same credits as on Form
1040-NR.

Line 25. Tax. Generally, you must enter 30% of the amount
on line 24. However, if you are entitled to a lower rate or an
exemption from tax because of a treaty between your country
and the United States, attach a statement showing your
computation of the tax. Also, include the applicable treaty
article(s).
