chadw Posted March 16, 2010 Report Posted March 16, 2010 I have a client that moved back to France(country of citizenship) in early June. She is dual status. Is there a way to get the "Dual-Status Return" statement on the top of the 1040NR. Chad Quote
Pacun Posted March 16, 2010 Report Posted March 16, 2010 You should file 1040 using world wide income. Quote
TaxCPANY Posted March 16, 2010 Report Posted March 16, 2010 Hey, chadw, I must respectfully disagree with Pacun: your client indeed has the option of filing a "dual-status" return. If you already know this, and simply are asking the technical question of how to get "dual status" printed, I can't help you, right now. Under Reg. Sec. 301.7701(-4((2), a departing "alien" may establish an 'early' "residency termination date," so as to avoid whole-year, US-resident taxation. A formal statement of your client's termination of residency must be attached to the 2009 return. Now, this assumes that your client did not have a "green card," because, if he/she did, he/she also must have taken steps to formally *relinquish* the green card, in time to cut his/her US-residency period short. Hope this helps, VTY, TaxCPANY Quote
Pacun Posted March 17, 2010 Report Posted March 17, 2010 I missread the original post. I thought he moved from France. I agree with TaxCPANY. Quote
