Texas Tax 2006 deduction items for a single immigrant?
I am a single and a fresh immigrant came with green card, live in US from Dec.2005 and start to work from March, 2006.
I didn't file tax for 2005 since I didn't have income.
I filed tax return for 2006 by April,2007 prepared by myself. But I only claimed basic tax exemption of income(first $7000). A friend told me there are more I should be able to get deduction.For instance, state sales tax(I bought a used car), relocation cost(since I came from other country)...
Also, he said I may qualify for non-resident category.
Now I am thinking to file a tax amendment.
If you know what's the typical deductible items for a person like me:
Single, gross income($60000), no-house,no-dependent, live in TX, US since Dec. 2005
What is the list of the deduction I can claim for credit?
I appreciate any advice. Please shed some light for american myth tax regulations..
Many many thanks...
