F1 for Sept 2004, all 2005, all 2006. NR or resident? Also 1042-s?

Hi Sir,

I am a phd student in F1 visa. I came here on Sept 2004. I filled taxes in 2005 and 2006 as non-resident (1040-NR EZ). I wonder if I can start filling as a resident for tax purposes. Also, this is the first time I received a 1042-S, that I don't know what should I do with it. I received as always de W-2. Should I add the tax withhold in both forms?

Thanks,
Diego

Diego:

You still need to file Form 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ.

You can add the compensation portion of the Form 1042-S to the wages line and the withheld taxes to the WITHHELD TAXES line on the Form 1040NR-EZ.
