1) California honors fellowship treaty (no max limit treaty). But CA does not honor $5000 treaty. 2) You need to report tax though your taxable income is zero. Federal Tax: File your tax with 1040NREZ, 1042-S and 8843 for yourself. 8843 only for your spouse if he/she is F2. If he/she is F-1, use same forms as you do. For CA tax: you are CA resident. See CA pub 1031 (you may google it). File with 540, with your zero income. 3) you cannot file tax jointly.
非常感谢。 还想请教一下,我们现在都还是nonresident, 填写540NR是short form 还是long form? 看了说明,感觉是short form,不确定对不对。。。 谢谢
