Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Thank you for this resource.

I don't have a Green Card. My H1B visa application was approved earlier this year and became effective this Oct. It's just a notice of approval so far. I have to go to a non-US country to finish the official visa. Before this, I have stayed in US for over 5 years with F-1 student visa and filed Form 1040.

I plan to stay outside US for the whole 2023. Now that dual-status return isn't required in my case, I'm not sure if I can just switch to 2023 Form 1040NR when it's time to file.

 

Is there any special rule for Green Card holders? The accountant I talked to said if one gives up his Green Card and leaves US, he's also required to do Form 1040-C and dual-status return for the departure year.
