Hello,
I have been in USA since 2003 and now I am in H1B status from F1 status. I know after 5 years you are taxed as a regular US Citizen, i.e. Treaties, using 1040NREZ and filing 8843 is out of the window. I support my parents who reside back home, can I claim them as dependents on my return from now on even though they do not have SSN.
Any help would be appreciated.
