Hi David,
I am part of US payroll and NOT my country's payroll and I have spent just 132 days in the last taxable year in US

Thanks

As I noted on the email, you failed to meet the THIRD requirement to have your income from U.S. taxes, in that the pay originated from a U.S.-based office of your employer.

Sorry, but your income IS subject to U.S. income taxes.
