• You received income from rents or royalties on property located in RI.
• You won money from the RI lottery or other RI gambling activities.
• You were a resident of RI for part of the year and need to file as a part-year resident. (Use Schedule V)

What Information Do I Need to File?

• Federal tax return information (including your Adjusted Gross Income)
• All income sources derived from or connected to RI
• Proof of income (W-2s, 1099s, etc.)
• Any applicable deductions and credits

Key Points to Remember about Form RI-1040NR:

• You can file electronically or by mail.
• The filing deadline is usually the same as the federal filing deadline (typically April 15th, with extensions available).
• Rhode Island income tax is calculated based on your federal taxable income with some adjustments specific to RI.
