As such they are exempt from the substantial presence test and are classified as nonresident aliens. If you are in this category, you file Form 1040NR-EZ and attach Form 8843. Your bank interest is not taxable. I don't have the Iowa rules as to who is a resident or nonresident of the state. However, if this is your only income, it probably doesn't matter as Iowa will tax it the same. Iowa will tax the bank interest. Your filing status is married nonresident alien. Just complete the front of the 1040Nr-EZ. Put your wages on Line 3; state income tax withheld on Line 11; $3100 on Line 13. Then, just do the math (addition and subtraction) and look up your taxes from the table. You should get a small refund. -- Alan http://taxtopics.net << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |

| Alien question Hello, I was a visitor research scolar from IOWA. I've stayed for a year in Iowa. My home country is Turkey. I'm married and my husband was in Turkey. My total wage is 15,780.97 Federal income Tax is 1,679.65 and state income tax withheld is 548.70. I've got an amount of 15.36 from my saving accounts (form 1099-INT) which form do I have to file (1040EZ or 1040 NR or 1040NR-EZ I think one of these) Do I qualify for a refund? Thank you Baran << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |
