Yes. In many cases, non-residents are still required to file with the IRS even if they had no income. If you were present in the U.S. under an F, J, M, or Q visa, you must usually submit Form 8843, which is an informational form used to report your visa status and days of presence.

Form 8843 does not generate taxes owed or a refund, but it is required to remain compliant with IRS rules and to protect your tax and immigration record.

📌 Important: Failing to file Form 8843 when required can create compliance issues and may affect future visa applications or benefits.

👉 File Form 8843 correctly and stay compliant with the IRS today:
