But the substantial presence test says F1's are exempt. Regarding your comment around the 5 years, why wasn't I considered a resident in 2017 then? That is confusing to me because I was categorized by H&R Block as non-resident for tax purposes in 2017 when they did my taxes last year. I am waiting for you feedback on this and will use your services going forward. (Note: I had 3 different F1's - First one 2009 to 2012 (Bachelor Degree), Second 2013 (summer program), Third 2016 to 2018 (MBA Degree and F1-OPT)
