For federal tax purposes, you are considered a U.S. person if you are:225 An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien;225 A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States;225 An estate (other than a foreign estate); or225 A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7).Special rules for partnerships. Partnerships that conduct a trade or business in the United States are generally required to pay a withholding tax under section 1446 on any foreign partners222 share of effectively connected taxable income from such business.
