International Student Loan Interest Deduction
I have been going through this forum and it has really helped me solve a lot of questions. Just one thing I could not find an answer to.
If I have been repaying a student loan (in India) in 2007 with considerable interest payment over the year, can I claim that interest in 1040NR/1040NR-EZ as deduction? I am a citizen of India and was on F1 till Oct 2007 when my status changed to H1-B. I am still planning to use 1040NR-EZ.
Also just in case I am able to deduct the interest paid for the loan, what proof do I need to furnish to IRS. The loan was taken from a bank in India.
Thanks a lot for the help,
Harshil
