If you have been in the US for less than 183 days and have a closer connection with another country (e.g. your home country), you can apply to be considered a nonresident alien by filing form 8840 together with your nonresident tax return.
Please read form 8840 and the instructions for form 8840.
Form 8843 is for aliens who want to exclude days from their substantial presence test because they could not leave the US for medical or another reason. That form would not apply to you.
