Wrong Tax Returns Filing


Recommended Posts

Posted

The classification is determined based on the "substantial presence test": If the substantial presence test indicates that the H-1B visa holder is a resident, then income taxation is like any other U.S. person and may be filed using Form 1040 and the necessary schedules; otherwise, the visa-holder must file as a non-resident alien using tax form 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ; he or she may claim benefit from tax treaties if they exist between the United States and the visa holder's country of citizenship.

Substantial presence test: 

You will be considered a U.S. resident for tax purposes if you meet the substantial presence test for the calendar year. To meet this test, you must be physically present in the United States on at least:

  • 31 days during the current year, and
  • 183 days during the 3-year period that includes the current year and the 2 years immediately before that, counting:
  • All the days you were present in the current year, and
  • 1/3 of the days you were present in the first year before the current year, and
  • 1/6 of the days you were present in the second year before the current year.

-- from wikipedia.

So as long as the visa holder is in the US for atleast 31 days this year or 180 days in the last 3 yrs, he can file 1040 form as turbo tax does. 
No issues.

Hello

For your time in F1, OPT (up to 5 years) visa, you have to file Form 1040NR EZ and Form 8843.

If you have filed Form 1040 by mistake, you can amend, fix the issue by filing Form 1040X Tax Amendment.
