My W-8BEN expired and US tax has been held on my Tesla share sale
I recently sold my Tesla shares, but realized afterwards that my W-8BEN was expired. In accordance with Internal Revenue Service regulations, my broker (Computershare) withheld taxes on payments at the applicable rate of 24% on uncertified accounts. How can I claim this US tax back from the share sale? If the sale of shares occurred in 2021 or earlier, you will only be able to claim back the US tax withheld by filing a 1040NR US tax return. You have 3 years from the due date
