Dear all,

I'm came as MS student in 2010 and became a PHD student in 2013. But I didn't have any income until 2012. So I forgot to file 8843 for 2010 and 2011. But I continue filing tax and 8843 since 2012.

I know I need to file former 8843 as soon as possible.

My question is about the specific details of how to file, like do I need to include any note to explain why I didn't file earlier or just mail the form? And can I mail them together or they have to be in separate envelopes?

No, just download each specific year, complete them, SIGN them and send them in.

Thank you. About the second question, although it seems dull, should I send both years forms together or separately?

You can send them together.

Hi, one more question, I've moved in 2011 and 2012, does this affect anything while filing the form?

No; just post it with your current address.
