    The Form 3520 requirement does NOT apply to you because, as you said, you are a non-resident alien.

    As you said, UNLESS you are a US resident even for tax purposes, then, you do not need to file Form 3520;ONLY U.S. persons and executors of estates of U.S. decedents NEED to file Form 3520 to report certain transactions with foreign trusts,Ownership of foreign trusts and
    Receipt of certain large gifts or bequests from certain foreign persons.
