Naga:

Go to 1040.com Website (http://www.1040.com) and download the 2005 version of Form 8843.

Fill it out, sign it and mail it to the following address:

Internal Revenue Center
Austin, Texas 73301

To my knowledge, there are no penalties for filing late, and, as the old saying goes, better late than never!
