First, let's deal with your Residency. "Resident" for tax purposes is different than a "Resident" for immigration purposes.
What type of visa do you have?
How long have you been in the US? What date did you arrive in the US?
Have you been in the US since you arrived? If not, give details.
Are you married? If so, is your spouse in the US? If so, are they a US Citizen or Green Card holder, or have they been in the US longer than you (if so, how long have they been in the US)?
