Form 8843 must be filed by all individuals on F-1 visa, or J-1 visa, and
their dependents, even if you have not earned any income in the U.S.
If you have not earned any income complete Parts I and III, sign on the back
and mail it to the IRS, Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania 19255.
Keep a copy for your records.
J-1 Scholars should complete Parts I and II, and sign the back of Form
8843. If you have not earned any income then just send in the form. If you
have earned some income in the U.S., then the 8843 should be
attached to your Form 1040NR-EZ or 1040NR. Keep a copy for your records.
In Part III question number 9 if you were a student at Rensselaer
you would write:
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
110 8th Street
Troy, New York
12180
518-276-6561
For question number 10 if you were a student at Rensselaer
you would write:
(Your Department's Name)
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
110 8th Street
Troy, New York
12180
518-(your departments number)
The same would be true for a J-1 scholar completing questions 5 and 6.
The staff in the Office of International Services for Students and
Scholars are not qualified or permitted to give any tax advice.
