Hi fellow 🐠, Any tax specialists here willing to give me some advice please? I just wanted to ask if I should file my IT Returns as a Resident or a Non resident (of the US) if I was employed until May by my US employer, with severance paid out until October but hadn’t set foot in the US all of last year (as I had been out of the country on medical leave since Nov ‘19) when the pandemic hit and prevented travel. Thanks in advance!

It’s so nice that every agency laying off people, have those left standing (and other agencies) trying to hustle jobs for their unemployed friends, but there are also a ton of people who were unemployed prior to Covid...so no severance, job hunting lot longer, and not earning income for longer time...hurting even MORE due to quarantine.

I’m the only mechanical engineer at my company dealing with a half dozen cranky production managers who think that I can “work my magic” on a machine.
