    1st year under L1 visa - Foreign Income - resident or not resident
    Hi,
    I am in Miami and have a L1A VISA since May 2006 and getting a US-based salary since then.

    Am I considered non-resident alien or resident alien ?

    I received both foreign-based salary and US-based salary during all 2006.
    What do I write in line #21 description ? "Foreign income" ?
    Besides indicating in line #21 of form 1040 the amount of foreign-based salary are there other documents that need to be filed together with form 1040 regarding the foreign-based salary ?

    A colleague of mine has L1A VISA but started from February 2006.
    He did not get a salary from the foreign company during all year 2006; only US-based salary.
    Does he have to indicate the amount of zero in the line #21 on the 1040 form for the foreign-based salary or just disregard it and leave it empty ?

    Thanks for your help.
