    If I am not eligible to fill the 1040EZ form how do I correct it now? Please let me know the way to clear this as I went to a well known tax company but they did this. Is this a mistake?

    You will file Form 1040X (amended tax return) with properly done nonresident tax return.
    If you did not claim moving expenses (if not reimbursed by employer), attach Form 3903 to claim the expenses.
    Pay tax due on or before April 15, 2010.
