It sounds interesting but as someone who's had to deal with IRS before I'd say it will be VERY difficult and not worth the amount of time/effort spent

I suspect this won't really be worth the effort for most, but good to know regardless.

 

[burmans]

You may well be right but hard to know until someone actually tries it! Alternately it could possibly just as easy as filling in the form and sending it off, who knows.

I can't really picture the US IRS coughing up revenue to an "Alien" - but happy to join the queue if they do!

Google IRS refund aliens and you may be surprised.

What can I say, this is the US we are talking about and close to 70% of Americans can't even find their own country on the map, we might as well be aliens!
