The details that they are asking for are

1) Please explain why you did not file 1040 NR, federal income tax return for the 2006 tax year.

2) The 1040 you did file indicates that you were a student during 2006. What was the amount of your tuition? How was it paid? List the amount and the source of any grants, scholarships, fellowships or tuition benefits that you received during 2006.

3) Submit a copy of your complete university student transaction statement , by account, for the year(s) listed above.

4) submit a copy of your USCIS Form 1-20-ID

They have requested I send the details to them by September 15.



I took out a student loan to pay for school in 2006 and also charged some of it to my credit card.

I drafted this letter to be sent out to them. Does it do justice to the questions asked?

Re: Property Tax Refund Details

Dear Sir,
This is in regard to the letter that was sent out to me on August 15, 2007 pertaining to details required in order to process my Property Tax Refund for 2006.
The reason 1040 NR was not filed was due to the fact that while filing my federal taxes for 2006, I assumed that was all I needed to submit (i.e. Form 1040). However, I soon realized I was required to complete form 1040NR and not the previous. I have yet to submit my amended tax returns (form 1040 X) which I intend to do while filing taxes for the next year.
Also as per your letter, I also want to confirm that I am currently a senior going to school in St. Paul, Minnesota. Please find below the particulars in regard to amount of tuition paid below.

Tuition Costs for year 2006

Spring 2006

Tuition Costs: $11,684.35

Grant from School: ($7,750.00)
Total Paid: $ 3934.95

Fall 2006

Tuition Costs: $12,232.40

Grant from School: ($7,750.00)
Total Paid: $4482.40


TOTAL FOR YEAR 2006: $ 8417.35 ( not including interest/late fees)


I paid for the tuition costs using my Credit cards and a student loan which was taken out in September.

Please find attached the documents supporting this claim along with this letter. They were taken from my online student account and they give details by term and all pertinent information.

Please also find enclosed herewith a copy of my USCIS I-20- ID.

If there are any other details that you would like me to furnish or any other questions, please feel free to mail me. You can also contact me at **********@hotmail.com

Thank you,

Sincerely
