Deductions & credits

Yes. Students and business apprentices who are eligible for the benefits of Article 21(2) of the United States-India Income Tax Treaty claim the standard deduction, provided they do not claim itemized deductions.

 

You will still have to file a nonresident income tax return (Form 1040-NR).

 

TurboTax does not support this form. You can file with TurboTax partner Sprintax.com.
