B4 the system was down, there was a discussion about the US china tax treaty
for lecture, professor and researcher. Someone said the article 19 only applys
to J1 visa holders. I asked the question to IRS. In the begining they told me
I have to pay federal tax as H1 holder. Then I argued with them. After
several exchanges of emails, I got a positive one yesterday.
Here's part of the email:
>Hello,
>As a researcher from China you will generally be exempt from U.S. income
>tax for a 3-year period.
