E-filing Form 1040NR

You can file Form 1040NR, U.S. Nonresident Alien Income Tax Return, or extensions electronically with UltraTax CS in the same way as 1040 returns or extensions.
  • The IRS doesn't let you e-file Form 1040NR-EZ or Dual status returns. You'll need to file these returns on paper.
  • You'll need to file 2020 and prior Form 1040NRs on paper.
To mark all 1040NR clients, go to
Setup
,
1040 Individual
,

tab, then mark the
File the return electronically if not marked for e-file in the prior year (Screen ELF)
checkbox.
note
Marking this checkbox doesn't also mark the
File this return electronically
checkbox for 1040NR-EZ clients. This is because the IRS doesn't let you file Form 1040NR-EZ returns electronically.
