Canadian selling in Amazon US, Do I need to file US taxes?
Hi everyone,
I am Canadian who got an EIN# so I can sell on Amazon FBA. I didn't do any transaction or even bough or sold anything yet.
My question is Do I still need to file my taxes to IRS even if I didn't use it? in other words Yes I have my US EIN# but I did not use it, does this obligate me to still file my taxes to IRS as zero?
some says no need to file if I didn't use it or made any transactions.
Other ppl say I must file my taxes if I have an EIN# even I file it as zero income.
Help me plz as I don't wanna pay money to an accountant to do my US taxes.
