FORM 8843
Who must file Form 8843?
All students, teachers, researchers, professors or trainees, and their spouses and dependents, who were admitted to the United States on an F, J or M visa, must file Form 8843, even if there was no U.S. earned income. If you had no U.S. source income, this is the only form you file. If you have no U.S. source income, you must attach this form to your 1040NREZ or 1040NR form.
Exception: If you determine that you are a "resident for tax purposes," it is not necessary to complete Form 8843.
