    --> 1099 Misc - NonEmployment Compensation - $4200
    --> 1099 INT - Tax Income - $35

    You will file nonresident tax return form 1040NR. What is your citizenship?
    For 1099-misc income you will file schedule C.
    You will also file state tax return.

    For filing you can take help of AtlantaTaxExpert at [email protected].
