After you file

@ankur11  ji, rather than my paraphrasing the requirements  ( many items may not be applicable to you though ), I will refer you to "horse's mouth " -- the IRS  -->

 

Departing Alien Clearance (Sailing Permit) | Internal Revenue Service (irs.gov)

 

Please note  depending on the state where you reside, there may also be filing requirements .

 

Really all have to assure is that all taxes have been collected / withheld.

 

You still have to file an end of the year  return.

A few points to note:

1. You should keep your US bank account  operational  for perhaps six months or so after filing your final return  ( if there is a refund from IRS or from the state these will be US$ denominated checks or direct deposit ( preferrable ).

2.  Any interest / dividend earnings   once you are a non-resident ( and recognized  on form 1040-NR ) will attract a   flat 30% federal tax and/or impacted by Tax treaty between US and your  tax home country  ( India ? )

3. Even when you have left this country, tax on US sourced income ( passive including rental or capital asset disposition ) may attract US and your tax-home country.   Therefore  one needs to  make plans  ( disposition or otherwise ) with an eye to future tax implications.

4.  You may want to also look in to  Social Security / Medicare  tax  implications --- you paid FICA in the USA and if your  tax-home country has a totalization agreement  with the USA ( most countries do ).  

 

As a Non-resident , your  "Foreign Source " income is generally not taxable in the USA.

 

Is there more I can do for you ?

 

Namaste ji
