Hi there. Brand new to the forum and really need assistance. I am a Canadian resident that has inherited mineral rights in the U.S., primarily Oklahoma. I’m in a situation where I’ll be receiving a decent check and require filling out a W-8BEN form. I’m unsure if in Part II line 10 if there is a special rate with a Canadian and U.S. tax treaty. I sat on hold with the IRS for a long time just to be transferred to a line that no longer exists and disconnected me. Hoping there might be other Canadians on here that could help.

I’m in a similar situation. I go to a U.S. tax specialist. They do my state, federal, and Canadian taxes. Too confusing.
