Hello,
I am Ahmed, I was on J-1 Visa and doing my research in research lab at Philadelphia. My stay in Philadelphia was from January 2010 (whole year) till October 2011. I have filed my returns on 1040EZ during 2010. Now, I have returned back to my home country (India) before completion of my 2 years on J1. I do not know which form shall I fill to file my tax this year(2011).
I would like to know whether I can claim back my total federal income tax withheld? Am I eligible for Indian tax treaty exemption? If so, please let me know the process and the IRS forms to be filled. I will be thankful to you.
Regards
Ahmed
