US-China Treaty Article 20B for F1-OPT

xbjconan · ‎June 1, 2019

Hi,

I am a Ph.D. student already been in the US for 8 years (resident alien) and currently working in an institute receiving fellowship with F1-OPT. My situation is unlike most questions regarding the treaty Article 20C, where you can put $-5000 in the Other Reportable Income and file a Form 8833 to IRS.

For the Treaty Article 20B, what should I do?

Where in TurboTax are you entering the fellowship income?

Yes, that is one of the questions that I am asking

I believe you should enter this under Less Common income and Miscellaneous income. You should include a description of the income and enter the amount as a positive number. Then you should make another entry under Miscellaneous income as a negative amount. Net zero but income has been reported.
