Music streaming earnings as a foreign national and non-resident alien.
Hello all,
I come from a country where there is no tax treaty with the US. I reside in my country of birth and has been earning income from Distrokid, an online distributor for music streaming.
Distrokid has been withholding 30% of my income as legally obligated to, and has given me a W8Ben form. I want to know how I can get the 30% back if it is possible? Do I just file taxes with Turbotax? Please note that I do not have any US status and do not reside in the US; I just merely used an online distributor that happens to be based in the US without knowing beforehand that I would be paying US taxes since the streaming isn't coming from the US anyway.
Thank you for your help!
