More about this document

What it is

People legally exempt from filing IRS can request a certificate of income reported to AT. It may help when fiscal income evidence is required and there is no Modelo 3 return for that year. Simply not filing does not establish an exemption.

Points to check and differences

Eligibility depends on income and the year’s rules. Missing income in the document does not prove it never existed.

Frequently asked questions

Is it an IRS return?

No. It certifies reported income in a filing-exemption context, not a submitted Modelo 3.

Can I request it just because I did not file?

Non-filing alone is insufficient. Check exemption eligibility or clarify your position with AT.
