Witholding taxes in form W4 for F1 single student from India.?
Hi, I am a F1 student who just got my first oncampus job. My employer gave me form w4 to fill. I need to know as a part US-Ind tax treaty how many total allowances I am entitled too. Can I specify standard deduction as a part of allowances. This referred from Pub 519 pg 43 Column 1- "If you are eligible for the benefits of Article 21(2) of the United States-India Treaty, you may claim an additional withholding allowance for the standard deduction." If yes, then total should be two right. I am single and no spouse or dependents. And are non resident aliens exempt from NY state taxes.

Single 2 is okay, but won't guarantee a refund. NRAs owe NY state taxes. The tax treaty is with the federal government (and you weren't exempt there either), not the indiviudal states.

I would say visit www.VisaTaxes.com and http://forum.VisaTaxes.com for any F1,OPT Tax Specific questions. Hope this helps!
