Nonresident albn who becomes a resident alien. Generally, only a
nonresident alien individual may use th6 terms of a tax troaty to reduce
or eliminate U.S. tax on certain types of income" However, most tax
lreaties conlain a provision known as a saving clause. Exceplions
specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax lo
continu€ for certain types of income even after lhe payee has otherwise
become a U.S. resident alien lor tax purpos€s.
lf you rre a U.S. reridenl alien who ie rolying on an oxcoptaon
conlained in ths saving clause of a tax lreaty to elaim an exemplion
from U.S. tax on certain types of income. you must attach a statement
to Form W-9 that specifies the follo,ving five ilems.
1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under
which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien.
2. The treaty articla addressing the income.
3. The article number (or localion) in the tax treaty that contains the
saving clauee and its exceptions.
4. The type and amount of incoma thal qualilies lor the €xemption
from tax.
5. Sufficieni lacts lo justify the ox€mption trom tax under the terms of
the treaty article.
Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an
exemption from tax for scholarghip income received by a Chinese
student t€mporarily preaeni in the United States. Under U.$. law, thig
student will b€come a r€sidont ali€n for tax pulposss if their etay in lhe
United States exceeds 5 calendar years. Howeve r , paragraph 2 of the
first Protocol to ths U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allowe the
provisione of Article 20 to conlinue to apply even after the Chinese
student becomeo a resident alien of the United States. A Chinese
student who qualifies for this exc€ption (under paragraph 2 of the first
Prolocol) and is relying on thie exception to claim an exemption from tax
on their icholarship oi fellowship income would attach to Form W-9 a
statement that includes the information described abovo to support that
exemplion.
lf you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity. give the r€qu€ster the
approp,riate completed Form W-8 or Form 8233,

tax-exempt interest, dividends. broker and barter exchange
lransac,tions, rents, royallies, ntmemployee pay, payments made in
