    F1 stundent + currently on OPT + Tax Return
    Hi..

    I am a F1 student from india right now graduated and working on OPT.

    DO I get tax deduction on Tution fees and relocations.

    I moved from CA to TX for 3 months and then came back to CA. So, does that 3 months period count ?

    Let me know

    Thanks

    No, you cannot claim the Tuition credits because non-resident aliens are not eligible for those credits.

    Since you are a student on F-1 status, you have no tax home, so the temporary expenses in Texas are NOT deductible In my opinion.
