F1 to Green Card (DV lottery winner)
Hello,
I am a former F1 visa holder (from May 2006 -Sep 2006), left the US on September for a brief trip home to process the Green card (won DV lottery). Re-entered US with the green card on September 2006. Lived in California from May 2006 onwards except for a brief trip.
I understand that I must file as a resident because of my Green card holding status. Which forms should I file? I earned no income (neither in the US nor in my home country) during 2006 as I was studying the whole year.
Thanks for your help :)
