Form 8843
Hi my mane is Margy, I been in U.S since 2003 as a tourist. Later I change my status to F1 since 2004. I have never filled any form since then. My friend told me that I have to use the form 8843. What should I do? Do I have to filled 3 forms for the 3 years I been here?
Please help me... One more thing... in 2003 before I change my status to F1 I applied for a Tax Payer Identification Number and I got it... What should I do with it... cancel it or use it in my form 8843 declaration? Thank you for your help... |

Your friend is correct. You should have been filing 8843 each year so file them now (and there is no need to cancel your identification number, this is not a problem).
Depending on your situation, you perhaps should have also been filing a tax return and you would file a 1040NR. |
