    Student loan interest deduction in 1040NR
    I was on F-1 from August 2004 to September 30th 2006.
    I was on H1B form October 1 2006 to December 31st 2006.

    While filing 1040NR, can I claim student loan interest deduction?

    CINTAX says I cannot since I was not a student on 31st December 2006.

    Please advice... I would like to mail in my return as soon as I get the answer to this... appreciate your help!

    CINTAX is wrong. You CAN claim student loan interest as a non-resident alien if your income is below a certain level ($65K for a single person).
