    You need to file as a non-resident alien, filing Form 1040NR wit Form 2106 to claim daily living expenses. This s permitted because your work tour was LESS than one year in length.

    You also need to file the state tax return.

    If you need professional help filing your return, email me at [email protected] or [email protected].
