How to withdraw withholding tax amount?

LetsTute

Can you tell me how should I withdraw the amount that has been accumulated in the With-holding tax section of the revenue report?

I am not a US resident nor living in the US.

Hi @LetsTute
To clarify a bit here, the US Internal Revenue Service requires that Udemy withhold tax from certain payments to instructors based on their tax status and the location of their students. To be clear, this is IRS tax that applies to income from US students, separate from any tax you owe in your country, this is a tax required of Udemy to apply as a US company. So your withholding rate will depend on the information you added to the tax form.

Please know the withheld tax amount you see in the revene share report cannot be withdraw, only you revenue share. For more information you need to reach out to instructorsupport@udemy.com.

Full tax withheld by Udemy in us - you can claim back by filing Income tax return of your country. I m from in India. And in You need file an FTC claim before filing your ITR, or else you will end up wasting tax credit that the US has deducted from your earnings. ITR filed without FTC [As per DTAA between India and the US] will not be eligible for rebate u/s 90 of the income tax act of India. Accordingly, you need to talk to your countries CA or CPA and he will help you to claim this amount.
