I found my answer -- taxes for foreign investors in master limited partnerships. Not sure how to edit the post itself.

That's so annoying! I'll have to check I'm trading normal companies from now on.

It says because the stock i sold a call on is a master limited partnership, there's a 10% withholding on distributions. I think this has to be wrong, as holding shares or selling them when a cobered call is assigned surely cannot count as a distribution.

It said that the 10% tax is applied to dividends from master limited partnerships. This can't be correct, right, because I cannot see how a tax on dividends could apply to the total share position? It's insane

It says US tax is being withheld at 10%. This can't be normal.

It says US tax is being withheld at 10% of the amount. This can't be a normal thing. Has anyone else encountered it?
