Hi, I have a question about my tax return:

In 2006-2007, I filed 1040 NR-EZ, but in 2008:

Jan-July F1 W2 From school

July-Dec F1 CPT W2 From a company

1099 Misc Box 3 $1740 for scholarship.

Subject to tax treaty.

Question is:

Can I file 1040 NR-EZ and put both W2 wages in line 3 and deduct $5000 tax treaty?

Where should I put box 3 income? Can I put it in line 5 scholarship grants since it is scholarship although it is on 1099 MISC? Or I need to file 1040 NR and put it in other income? Can I deduct this scholarship income because of tax treaty?


Thank you so much!

Yes, on the tax return you will add income from both the W2s.
About 1099-misc, it is other income. Scholarhip grants are normally reported on Fom 1098-T or 10402-S.
