If your client had filed a correct W8-BEN with the broker, the proper amount of tax was supposed to have been fully withheld and treaty benefits applied.  In that case, 1040NR will not need to be filed unless your client had US-ECI and/or other FDAP income, the tax on which is not properly withheld.
