Question

Alice lived with her parents in F-2 immigration status in the United States from August 2010 to June 2012. She returned to the U.S. to attend college in F-1 immigration status on May 1, 2019. Alice does not need to file Form 8843 for 2020.
A. True
B. False

Answer 1

Answer:

B. False

Explanation:

According to the rules guiding the F-1 visa holders, all "non-residents for tax purposes are required to file Form 8843."

So Alice entering into the U.s with F-1 status implies that she'll be treated as a "non-resident", therefore she would need to file Form 8843 for 2020.
