Abstract

In the U.S. tax system, foreign students are treated as nonresidents, which perhaps unintentionally places many of them at a disadvantage. This article presents a modest proposal for a new regime under which nonresident alien students may elect to be treated as residents of the United States for federal income tax purposes.
