What does Form 1042-T summarize?

  1. Worker status determination

  2. Income and taxes withheld amounts

  3. Foreign person's U.S. source income

  4. Compensation for independent services

The correct answer is: Income and taxes withheld amounts

Form 1042-T summarizes income and taxes withheld amounts. This form is used to report various types of income paid to foreign persons and the amount of withholding tax deducted from these payments. It helps in ensuring proper reporting and compliance with tax regulations concerning payments made to non-resident aliens and foreign corporations. The other options are not correct because they do not accurately reflect the purpose of Form 1042-T.
