F1OPT -> H1, tax form and tax treaty
Hi,
I was on F1 from 1998 to 2004, F1 OPT from July 2004 - July 2005, and H1 since July 2005.
I'm working at the same job since my F1 OPT (so I have one W-2 form).
In 2005, I was in the US with H1-B for less than 183 days, but I have been hear long enough with F1 visa, so I don't know if
1. I have to fill out 1040NR or 1040 (Last year, I used 1040).
2. I can apply a tax treaty for H1 holders or not (My home country (South Korea) has a tax treaty with the US for F1 students for 5 years (which I used as a student), and another tax treaty for H1-B holders (for 2 years)).
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!
