Thank you very much for your recipe to find the answer but I
still don't know how to follow the recipe. The Czech-US tax
treaty has a lot of words about residency
http://www.fifoost.org/tschechien/steuern/dba_us-cz/node5.php
that don't seem to have anything to do with the presence in
one country or another, and I don't know what it means in my
case and whether the word "resident" means the same in all
contexts and whether it holds for the same year or its part
- simply I still don't understand anything.
On the other hand, this page seems to say that Massachusetts
recognizes all federal treaties:
http://www.mass.gov/?pageID=dorterminal&L=4&L0=Home&L1=Individuals+and+Families&L2=Personal+Income+Tax&L3=Personal+Income+Tax+FAQs&sid=Ador&b=terminalcontent&f=dor_help_nonres&csid=Ador#8
That's pretty scary that I would have to hire a tax expert
even though I did nothing special whatsoever. It is all so
overwhelming that it seems more acceptable to ignore the tax
return (and refunds) altogether and sit in the prison if
necessary because it is still better than several months of
huge nerves and uncertainty which is what you indicate.
Thanks anyway
Lubos
