An IRS web page says that a dual resident taxpayer can file tax return
using 1040NR with 8833. See:
http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/international/article/0,,id=96383,00.html
I wonder if this is true for me, a green card holder living in my own
country, Japan, which has a tax treaty with U.S. I am a Japanese
national. The US-Japan tax treaty, I understand, also has a "saving
clause". In general, I understand that the saving clause prevents most
of the dual resident taxpayers from using treaty benefits. See Treaty
Benefits for Resident Aliens in http://www.thetaxguy.com/treaties.htm
I wonder if I can still file tax return using 1040NR with 8833 as the
IRS web page says..

The Green Card implies that you are a lawful permanent resident of the
United States. As such, the 1040NR isn't available to you.

Generally, if you have a green card, that means you have US resident
status and must file your tax return as a resident. However, you
should look into the US/Japan tax treaty (which I am NOT expert in) to
see if there are any exceptions enumerated in it.
