- The main problem reported by the user is whether Fidelity reports all NRA withholdings through a 1042-S form at the end of the fiscal year.
- Fidelity clarified that eligibility to receive a 1042-S form is determined by the client’s status as of December 31 of the prior tax year.
- Reportable transactions while classified as a non-resident alien will indeed be reported on Form 1042-S.
- Users can access applicable tax forms, including Form 1042-S, online through Fidelity’s website, typically available in mid-March.
