I am an Italian citizen and a physician.
I've lived in the US from November 2003 until October 2004 with a J-1 visa. At that point I was an "observer" and had no income in the US.
Now I have won a position for a 4 year program of formal training (fellowship), which includes 1.5 to 2 years of basic research and I will receive a salary from the University in the U.S. I am here on a J-1 Visa.
Am I eligible for exemption of taxes according to the US income and capital tax convention?
Thank you
