Well if you think the EPA is useless, you can try the smog in China. I am an industry guy too who doesn't enjoy the EPA as much, but even i have to agree that they do an excellent job in protecting public health. Its better to go overboard than to be less than conservative.

I was with a group for a year long remediation work at a coal plant now running on Natural gas, without the EPA that kind hustle no for show.

slimmy2005:
That guy would divide the US. Trump cannot win the Media. The media would ruin his administration. He can't gag them

CNN taking it really personal

gunther6:



The guy no dey try, he just reactivated keystoneXL, his rhetoric has not softened if not more acidic, I have a friend doing her internship at EPA, They have been banned from press releases even mundane stuffs as updating their social media accounts. I don tire for this place already sef.


On the lighter note I would start wearing Nigerian flag all around but Americans are not exactly gifted at geography. The next person that asks me 'so where are you from' , I will slap walahi.

na heavy Igbotic accent i use for one policeman wey stop me the other day. i no send again, the guy free me.

aadeyi:


You looking at the whole Trump scenario, u just can't really figure what's going on with him, he changes the air wave every 12hours with different news.

21th January 2015 the date on EPA's tombstone every single experience I have had, is due to EPA strangling companies to adhere to environmental regulations

Trump would cough and the media would suddenly have an orgasm, it's going to be a long four years

ismart:

oh yes.

do schools offer some form of support for MS. Operation Analysis/management for Engineers? since most of this type of program are under "business Schools"

responses would be appreciated

Its so funny that retailing business turns the IGBOS millionaires overnight but that next level type success by the WAlton's family (Walmart) is what needs to be decoded, we have the market (170 million people)

wow, we here!!! even with a new President that reinvented POPULarism and Nationalism, we go make am Bros Ojap its been a while

slimmy2005:
You are not permitted to claim it. But anyway we just edit it to suit the system. I've gotten it before as well. If they say I should return it. I will return it but for now I am filling that damn thing

lol Owu season

Can international students who received a 1098-T form claim a deduction ?

For most alien individuals present in the U.S. on an F-1 Student Visa, the answer is no. Generally speaking, the time spent by an alien individual studying in the U.S. on an F-1 Student Visa would not count toward determining whether he or she was a resident alien under the substantial presence test for federal tax purposes. Thus, if you are an alien individual with an F-1 Student Visa, you are probably a nonresident alien.

biikeys:


Generally, you can't/shouldn't.. at least for federal tax returns.

okay

biikeys:

Department of the Treasury
Internal Revenue Service
Austin, TX 73301-0215
USA

If you are not claiming any dependents (e.g. spouse,children), you can also use 1040NR-EZ.

so no ground should Non-residents submit electronically?!

Table A. Who Must File Form 1040NR
You must file Form 1040NR if any of the following conditions apply to you.
1. You were a nonresident alien engaged in a trade or business in the United States during 2016. You must file even if:
a. You have no income from a trade or business conducted in the United States,
[b]b. You have no U.S. source income, o[/b]r
c. Your income is exempt from U.S. tax under a tax treaty or any section of the Internal Revenue Code

the question is now if you did get an income?

Tax Form 1040NR is also known as U.S. Nonresident Alien Income Tax Return. This tax form is similar to the regular 1040 form used by United States citizens. That being said, there are some importance differences that you need to be aware of if you are required to file this particular tax form.

biikeys:


True, but that's because they don't use 1040NR..so they can claim different tax credits and deductions. For those looking to file (non tax residents), the right way is to file using the 1040NR for which your returns will very likely be around $100 or less. If you use the wrong form,which turbotax uses..you'll get more refund, but you better hope you don't get audited within the statute of limitations. Anybody who cares to read can read up 1040 NR Instructions on IRS website..it's self explanatory-and you can file your tax yourself.

and submit the 1040NR to? after my friend got a bill of 1k from IRS for wrongful filling, na him i melo

SirRiddy and Femi321,
Go to your International Student Office or use a Nigerian accounting firm. They will ask for your tuition payment confirmation which you download from your student account. It qualifies for the rebate. Lastly, do not use H&R blocks. They know nothing about International Students and what applies to us.

1098T is for everyone regardless of where they from. some schools email it out as soon as the turn of the year

GboyegaD:


Anyone in such a place will learn to take vitamin D supplements.

proper blend it and drink as smoothie

sirRiddy:

just because of Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, some of those Americans working abroad would rather renounce their citizenship, who no like better thing.

slimmy2005:
1098T is to get education credit which is like $1,000. You get that from school as well, to show how much you paid in fees.

but so form of funding or grants dips your refund . TurboTAX still showing the highest for now

sirRiddy:


Not funny at all.
Na SA wey dey the list confuse me.
Wetin SA chop to that extent. I just happy
as I no see ghana dey, if not my roommate

Make April do come sha.

Ghanians SA-Anglo-American deals na Uranuim deals Nigeria na to dey sell trouble we sabi

GboyegaD:

Then these chinko boys say them no go comot shishi for their money and still get returns. Na im my ear open only to find out naija no dey all the treaty nonsense.

All MSc English language students in my school, University of Missouri are all funded with stipend. But the application period for 2017 is over.

columbia?

I go dye made a hilarious joke of how many buhari pops up on the news when he wants to travel lol

femi321:
Abi na. Because i don't understand how one will survive in this country without any form of funding and you need all these exams to stand a chance at funding.An average Masters will cost about 11.2 million, just tuition alone not to talk of living expenses per month. If i had 11.2 million, i wont even leave Nigeria. So all this questions of schools without exams really amaze me

11.2 million, thats too much a capital already

Ori ti daru one love just blunt facts, if i dey carry children go CHUKEE cheese and follow them do PLAY-doh, to get benji no be sey i no sabi where i dey go

sirRiddy:

na you

hope sey na compound comparison you dey do make e no be sey the "you" na me . its funny but i have got to meet some guys who don't know about this thread or they left this thread at some point at the sojourn of their American Dream who are doing EXCELLENT . just pick what you need on here and move on. it's a faceless medium Brother ,

sirRiddy:
LOL
I would not advise anyone using agent cos you can
have someone to bi.tch at any time your mumu
query is not replied after a minute. Pay 200k and get
recommendations to apply to school one thief has on
a txt file on his laptop.
People with Warren Buffett kinda dream and Trump
kind of mouth cannot even do simple query search...LOL
This thread is the best that can happen to us in Naija. If all
you can contribute is mum query and nonsense attitude, you
can as well go to hell.

OluDare01:

Same way I told someone the truth and he said I'm too blunt. The thing is people don't wanna hear the truth, they prefer agents that would feed them with lies

truth be told man, even some ungrateful ones who think their folks here are rich (even if they are), they would have to be super excited about your future to invest in it. just go through that pain to get that degree no matter where even if it is in Anchorage, and make God help you get that PKALI, work dey this country for SKILLED PROFESSIONALS, NO GOOD THING COME EASY.
