Two 1042-S forms and Bangladesh-US tax treaty

Hello, 

I have a W2 (from graduate school)and a 1042-S (as a postdoctoral fellow) this year. If I follow the steps outlined by Amy for filing my 1042-S via turbo tax. Do I still need to mail a paper copy to IRS with my 1040 and 1042S?

You will need to mail it for the 1040. The 1042-S is a reporting form you use to file taxes in Bangladesh.

Two 1042-S forms and Bangladesh-US tax treaty

Hi Amy,

 

I was a Teacher Assistant during 2020 and got a 1042s from my school (code 16 no treaty). As of Dec of 2020 I had spent more than 5 years in the US as a student.

Do I still have to report for the 1042s I received? If so,  should I input the Gross Income from box 2 or the Total Withholding Credit from box 10 in the Miscellaneous Income? 

Thanks!

Income treaty is out of scope for our service.  You will need to consult a professional for clarification whether it is taxable or not.  If this is taxable to you, you will treat Form 1042- S as receiving a scholarship or fellowship to offset your qualified education expenses if there are any.  If you are not a student, you will enter the amount under Other Income.  As IRS receives a copy of your Form 1042-S, you can still e-file your tax return.  You do not need to submit your Form 1042-S separately.
