I am Indian research scholar on J1. I came to US in Aug 2005 and will be returning back to India in April 2007. I have been paying tax ever since I came here and my wife has been working since Jan 2006. She has also been paying her taxes. Does the tax treaty with India allow us to claim a full refund of the taxes we paid since we are leaving before the completion of 2 years in the US? And if so how are we supposed to claim for the refunds?
