    Need to file form 8843 for 2007
    Hi,

    For 2007 and 2008. Hence I want to file form 8843 for bothe 2007 and 2008 this time. Can I do that? If so do I need file any additional forms along with these? Please respond quickly.

    Thanks
    Sandy

    No, if you are not required to file tax returns for 2007 and 2008, then you can file Form 8843 alone.
