But according to my personal information, Sprintax classified me as US resident for tax purpose because I was in the US since 2009 December (I went back to my home country every summer for about two months). During seven years, I had no income but only receive non taxable scholarship from university in this year. <BR />So, can you explain what US resident for tax purpose actually mean and things that I have to do? <BR />Thank you Thu, 06 Jun 2019 10:13:07 GMT jhkwag970 2019-06-06T10:13:07Z International Student US resident for tax purpose question https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/tax-credits-deductions/discussion/international-student-us-resident-for-tax-purpose-question/01/668825#M87594 It is my first time to use Turbotax to complet tax information.<BR />I am kind of confusing that it is mandatory to complete tax form?<BR />This is my brief infomation:<BR />At first, I used Sprintax.
