u can deduct the qualified tuition paid in 2003

NR only gets the latter
no idea about the benefits of state or local tax | r**h
发帖数: 175 | 2 as far as i know, if u use 20(b），
u need a signed letter from your dept. to support the claim
it's about the stipend is qualifed as scholarshiop set forth by Sec. 117
of internal revenue code(dunno what the heck it is)
then u don't need the exemption or deduction at all since u have $0 taxable
income if the $$$ from UC is ur total income.
and i am not sure whether u can use it if filing as resident
go to tax board to ask ba........but most of the case they will reply like
"read the pub. 519!" . | a*****a
发帖数: 1038 | 3 Since you could not get $5000 tax free anymore, why not choose Form 1040..
If you do some stock investment, purchase the real estate, and do donate your
revenue to charity, you probably need to fill the Form 1040 instead of 1040
EZ.
In addition, you could let tax consultant to fill this form out, and typically
he/she would figure it about for you.
