Hi, I was in the US until last year on an F-1 visa, finished my studies and returned home in summer 2010. Now I am filing taxes for 2010 with 1040nr-ez and 8843, and I'm wondering, what is my current non-immigrant status? Can anyone answer this question?

If you did not complete 5 years on F-1, file nonresident tax return and form 8843. Your U.S. Tax Return: U.S. Tax Filing Requirements for Non-Residents (http://taxipay.blogspot.com/2008/03/us-tax-filing-requirements-for-non.html)

Ok, thanks! I am still wondering what to put in the line asking for "Current nonimmigrant status and date of change" though. Is it still F-1? Or non-resident? Or should I put "not in US anymore"?

Enter "Departed from US on....."
