Per IRS requirement, you need to furnish a form W-9 to claim the treaty benefit if you becomes a resident alien:
"Nonresident Alien Who Becomes a Resident Alien
Generally, only a nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax treaty to reduce or eliminate U.S. federal tax on income from a scholarship or fellowship grant. A student (including a trainee or business apprentice) or researcher who has become a resident alien for U.S. federal tax purposes may be able to claim benefits under a tax treaty that apply to reduce or eliminate U.S. federal tax on scholarship or fellowship grant income. Most treaties contain a provision known as a "saving clause." Exceptions specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to continue for scholarship or fellowship grant income even after the recipient has otherwise become a U.S. resident alien for federal tax purposes. In this situation, the individual must give the withholding agent a Form W-9, Request for Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) and Certification, to claim his treaty exemption and an attachment that includes all the following information:
The individual's name
The individual's U.S. Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)
A statement that the individual is a resident alien under
The green card test
The substantial presence test, or
The residency article of a tax treaty
The tax treaty under which the individual is claiming a benefit
The article number of the tax treaty under which the individual is claiming a benefit, and a description of the article
A statement that the individual is relying upon an exception to the saving clause of the tax treaty to claim the benefit
Example: Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese student temporarily present in the United States. Under the Internal Revenue Code, a student may become a resident alien for tax purposes if his or her stay in the United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However, the treaty allows the provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese student becomes a resident alien of the United States." |
