    You can efile or you can send hard copy.
    However, if you filing with India address, then you can not efile.

    If you are filing a resident alien return (Form 1040, 1040A or 1040EZ), you can efile.

    If you are filing a non-resident alien return (Form 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ), then the return must be mailed.
