Hi ATE

I have a question about F500, Schedule 3.
I have earned wages working abroad along 2006 (my US company assigned me outside US).
These wages are part of my W-2.
I did not pass the SPT, so I’m nonresident alien.

I would really appreciate if you could help me:
a. Do I have to enter that “outside US wages” in any of the Schedule 3 columns (A,B,C)?
b. Do I have to enter my savings account interest in any of the Schedule 3 columns (A,B,C)?
c. If not, Do I have to enter those amounts at least in Column B?

Thanks for you kindness!
Arely

Arely:

a. Yes, you HAVE to enter it in Column A, since they are part of your W-2 wages. If you earned the income before you became a GA resident, put it in Column B. If not, put it in C.

b. Yes, for Column A. Yes for Column C if the interest was earned while living in Georgia.

c. If not in C, then in B.

Thank You, ATE

I have got another question related to 1040NR, line 8.
As I mentioned, all my wages are shown in my w-2 form.
Additionally, I spent most of the 2006, performing services outside US.

I have read some where that I am subject to taxes just in the amount related to services inside US.

Then, Can I prorate the w-2 amount considering inside US vs outside US days? I guess I could get some taxes back if that's true.

Best Regards,
Arely.

If you are reporting income on Form 1040NR, then you are subject to U.S. taxes ONLY on U.S.-sourced income. If your employer is based in the U.S. then the W-2 income is ALL U.S.-souyrced and you have to pay taxes on all of it.

If the employer is NOT a U.S. company, then you can pro-rate the income.
