Retirement tax questions

If you are certain you are covered by the treaty, you can negate the income in the same section where you reported it.

 

  1. Log into your account
  2. Select Wages and income>other income
  3. Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099>start
  4. Scroll to the bottom of the page to Other Reportable Income
  5. Other taxable income, answer yes
  6. Now give your income the following description.  Income excluded by US/XXX tax treaty. The X's represent the country that the US has a tax treaty with. Then report the same income with a minus sign in front of the amount. 
  7. This entry should be preceded by the original entry you made that reported the income so that there is a flow between the two entries.

Just one last note, some states do not honor a foreign tax treaty provision.  Please read this IRS link

to find out if your state honor these treaties.
