It is important to be aware that, as a non-resident in the US, you’re legally required to file a tax return if you received US income during 2024. ISP recommends Sprintax, an online filing service for non-residents. Sprintax will guide you through the tax preparation process, arrange the necessary documents and check if you’re due a tax refund.
Tax filing deadline: April 15, 2025
Once you complete the preparation process in the Sprintax software, you may need to print, sign and mail your documents to the IRS. Depending on your circumstances, you may be able to E-file your Federal tax return. However, this will depend on certain eligibility criteria.

Sprintax offers tax season webinars. This is a Sprintax service, not an ECC service. We recommend that you attend one of the webinars, chat with Sprintax online, or consult with a tax accountant. If you have any questions, the Sprintax team will assist you via their 24/7 Live Chat.
