and USA still deductible? if a couple, should deduct $10,000? and Standard
deduction for married taxpayers filing a joint return - $11,900 should be
applied too? Ｆ１转Ｈ１报税，会有中美协议的５０００免税吗？Thanks! | f*******n
发帖数: 12623 | 2 Why are you doing dual status? If you don't do dual status, are you resident
or non-resident for the year? (Are you H1b for more or less than half year?
Is your F1 more than 5 years?)
The treaty always applies for the time you're on F1. So you can deduct 5000
from your income from the part of the year you were on F1. Everybody is
separate, so if you spouse is F1 too, then they can deduct 5000 for their
income while on F1.
Dual status does not have standard deduction. Resident has standard
deduction. |
