After you file

@tamk236  can you just download the forms , attach the W-2c ?  Yes .   But it would be wrong.  Others may have filed the erroneous form and nothing happens ( i.e. IRS accepts and processes the  filings ) does not  mean that it meets the rules set forth by the IRS.

My strong recommendation would be to file a form 1040-NR, fill out everything ) by hand or otherwise -- these forms are fillable pdf ), attach a copy of  filed 1040 and include a letter explaining that you  are  Non-Resident Alien  ( NRA )  and had filed on the wrong form.  This should then update your account with the IRS.  Any refund would be sent to you as a check unless you still have a valid US bank account ( in which they can direct deposit )..

Is there more I can do for you ?
