Foreign Workers in the U.S. - A Free Webinar

by Bookkeeping-Essentials
(BC, Canada)

The IRS has a free webinar to answer questions regarding wage payments to nonresident aliens (ie. a Canadian working in the U.S.) and vendor payments to foreign individuals or businesses (ie. Canadian businesses who do business in the U.S.).

The webinar will answer these questions*:

• When to file a Form 1042/1042-S for payments to foreign persons?



• How visa types impact employment tax reporting and payment provisions?



• What to do when documentation from a nonresident alien does not satisfy the requirements of the Form W-4?

The free webinar titled "International Issues-Payments Made to Foreign Persons-A Basic Overview for Government Entities" will be held on May 12, 2011. You can register here:
