Receiving Salary in my US Bank Account for 7 months while living outside of USA - Taxation

[RecentPR]

Hello

I left the US December 2018 and I had valid H1B visa till Oct 2020. I continued my job remotely till June 31 2019. I am confused how to file my taxes. Since I was a non resident of the US for the entire year of 2019 am I eligible to receive all my tax money back ? Does someone have experience ? Thanks!

Just file the taxes and get whatever the return you get. The refund is based on your income and resident status etc, not based on whether its less than 6 months of income in a year.

Would suggest getting an account who specializes in US/Canadian taxes. There are quite a lot of them around.
