Dear Atlanta Tax Expert,
I am filing 1040 NR EZ for 2005(Indian resident on H-1 B since September 2005)
1.I was a student until August 2005. I received a scholarship during my Masters, by which my out of state tax was exempted and I also got a $ 500 scholarship in January 2005. Is the scholarship and/or waiver tax exempt?
2. What is the treaty article for India tax treaty for the $ 5000 benefit?
3. Which line of the 1040 NR EZ do I claim the $ 3400 personal exemption?
Thank you very much,
Madhav
