Two more questions if you don’t mind-
1. I didn’t file 1040NR in previous year, is that Ok? Will that get me into trouble?
2. I found additional information on 183 days in the link below,
It mentions do not count days in US during which: “you are commuter from a residence in Canada or Mexicoâ€, if that is correct information, I am less than 183 days this year as I don’t need to count 1 day per week due to weekly traveling. Is that right?

However, I am still over 183 days based on substantial presence test even I am not over 183 this year based on exception mention above this year and years before but I probably pass substantial presence test this year and even year before….but my company never mentioned this rule to me before, am I in trouble? Or based on US & Canada income tax treaty plus I have no US source income, I am OK?
thanks again!
