    RPatel:

    You CAN file Form 1040NR-EZ and claim the interest paid as a deduction on Line #9 of IRS Form 1040NR-EZ.

    You also need to file Form 8843 with the Form 1040NR-EZ, plus the state tax return.

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