IRS says 37% is highest tax rate for individual. But I confused if non-resident suppose to pay 37% why he will get a refund? On 1040 NR a kind of 10% tax rate been calculated


 

The 37% is merely the WITHHOLDING rate, not the actual tax rate.

So yes, $10,000 of ordinary income with no other income would be about 10%.
