I was in India until November 2016 which means I was there for more than 182 days.
I moved to US for the remaining year. Now in my W2 statement(Similar to form 16 for US) . I had the below components:
Total Income = a Federal Income Tax = b Social Security Tax = c Medicare Tax = d State tax = e I received the amount in my bank = a-b-c-d-e.
Now India and US have a DTAA and you can claim relief to the extent of taxes paid. So can I get tax exemption of total tax = (b+c+d+e) or just Federal tax (b).
In case it is only Federal Tax, can I reduce my total income by removing other taxes (c+d+e)?
Please guide me in calculating my total income for India ITR return.
