Hi, I am working under a J-1 visa at a US university. I did not receive salary last year, but I did receive a lump sum as a scholarship that was paid directly to my US bank account. The grant is from a foreign, EU-based organization. I am still paying taxes to my home country (also part of EU). How do I go about reporting this? Thank you so much!

    When did you enter the country -- date ?  Which country are you from?  Are you on J as a student or as a researcher/teacher/ etc ?
