    Where can I find the work sheet 5-1 for 2009
    I am an F1 student from india. I was told by the IRS that in order to claim the 5700 standadr deduction I need to fill a worksheet that is in pub 519. Is that true? Also I cannot find the pub 519 for the year 2009 online. Can some body help me find the latest pub/worksheet?

    Do I have to file that ? And I know that's the 2008 publication but haven't the amounts changed from 5450 to 5700?

    You do not attach any worksheet with your tax return. Line 10, Your standard deduction for 2009 is $5,700. Use this amount.

    Thank you very much. I will use this amount and the exemption of 3650. Did you mean Line 11?
