I stayed in US for less than 170 days in year 2011 ( from feb mid to July end) on L1 B and came back to india since then. My employer withheld federal tax (2880 USD)and state tax (1400 USD) during that period (it is mentioned in my W2.) I stayed at rented house with my friend on sharing basis and my friend was the one who initially got that house rented against his name. I don't have any bills with me as of now as I am in india.
I believe that my residency status was Non resident alien for 2011 so I'd like to know that filing 1040NR will benefit me or I should file normal 1040 for tax return?
Please advise.
