    Stayed Less than 183 days in NJ on L1
    I stayed for less than 183 days in NJ on L1.

    I was in us from mid may 2007 till mid oct 2007. Presently I am in India.

    Do I need to file 1040 or 1040 NR?

    Will I be a part resident or Non-Resident for NJ?

    What is 1040 NR-EZ? Do I need to file it also?

    Thanks in advance for your Advice.

    You need to file Form 1040NR on the federal level and as a part-year resident for New Jersey.

    The reason you want to file Form 1040NR is so you can claim your daily living expenses on the Schedule A that is part of the Form 1040NR.

    PM or email me if you need help doing this, as I specialize in doing tax returns for overseas clients.
