Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you did not pay to file the return or complete the return to send to the IRS, just ignore it. You do not have a filing requirement for year 2022 unless you have US-based income to report.

 

For next year, if you earn income in the US, you will file a 1040 Non-Resident return. Turbo Tax do not handle this type of return but our affiliate at sprint.tax does.

 

Just an FYI, as a J-1 student, you may exclude U.S. days of presence as a “student” for purposes of the Substantial Presence Test for up to five calendar years. The five-year limit is a lifetime limit that can’t be renewed but may be extended if certain conditions are met. This means that even if you meet the Substantial Presense Test to be a resident alien, you may choose to file as a non-resident up to five years after arriving to the United States if you choose to. Refer to this reference for more details.
