Hi, I studied in the U.S. from 2009 to 2014 on an L-2 visa, attending both high school and college. Afterward, I returned to Korea to complete my education. In September 2023, I came back to the U.S. as a Ph.D. student on an F-1 visa.
I am trying to determine whether I am currently considered a non-resident alien for tax purposes. I have heard that the F-1 visa is subject to an accumulative time period rule, which may classify me as a resident alien. Based on this understanding, I filed my taxes using TurboTax, and my filing was successfully accepted.
Could you confirm whether I should indeed be considered a resident alien for tax purposes, or if I should have filed as a non-resident alien?
