Forgot to file 1042 S form
Hi,
I am in F1 visa (student ) and I just filed my tax return for 2012 in turbotax. I filed 1098 T and W 2 form and my refund is already accepted . But I just got my 1042-s form today from my university. Now what I need to do ? Do I need to file it again? In that case do I just need to file the 1042-s or both 1042-s and w-2(again)? Do I need to pay penalty? Please help me Thanks |

To begin with, you file incorrectly!
As an international student on the F-1 visa, you are a non-resident alien and should have filed Form 1040NR-EZ with Form 8843. By filing on-line, you probably filed Form 1040EZ. You will need to amend your 2012 return, adding the income from the Form 1042-S and attaching an properly-prepared Form 1040NR-EZ to the Form 1040X. Then you can submit the Form 1042-S with the amendment. If you believe that you will need professional help with this amendment, this IS what I do.

Hi, I've been a F1 student since the fall of 2009, and I have had income since then.

Hello, In August 2008, I became a resident alien for tax purposes, which I guess makes me a dual-status alien. I have received a 1042-S form (income code 19, $0 withheld), but when doing my taxes with Turbotax, I was not able to find a place to provide the information given in the form. I have...
Dear Sir, I think I need to clarify the question about this. I was in the US from July 2006 to July 2007 with F-1 student visa. I again came back to the U.S. in August 2008 with J-1 trainee visa. I started to prepare for the tax return document (but actually I only need to pay the income...
