“1월이면 소득세 신고기간이고 세금환급을 받을수 있다는데”
?”----> Generally, your tax return is due on April 15th of 2013 for yur 2012 return. The IRS allows you to file an extended income-tax return provided that you have applied for an extension and paid the estimated amount of taxes on or before the April 15 deadline. Both the extension form and the extended income-tax returns can be filed by snail mail. Extended income-tax returns are due Oct. 15 of the year 2013 for your 2012 return.UNLESS you , as a J1 visa holder, are a US resident for tax purposes, you can’t e-file your return.

A tax return delivered to the IRS by U.S. mail after the due date for the tax return is considered timely filed if the tax return was postmarked on or before the due date of the tax return.A recent change in the IRS tax regulations means a receipt from a private delivery service, such as Federal Express or UPS, will be accepted by the IRS as proof that your tax return was filed on time. If you're filing your tax return at the last minute you can use specified services from Airborne, DHL, Federal Express, and UPS in addition to the U.S. Postal Service. Make sure that you get a receipt. If your tax return is "postmarked" on or before the due date your tax return is considered timely filed.

To come within this IRS rule, however, the tax return must be postmarked within the prescribed filing period. For example, a tax return postmarked April 16th and received by the IRS on April 20th is considered filed on April 20th;


“세무서 비용은 얼마인지?”----> It depends on where you go, and how complex your return is. An simple return someplace like H&R Block, including a state return, is probably under $200, but if you have additional forms, for example if you itemize, it will be more.

If yourAGI is under low $57K, you can have your taxes prepared at no cost at a VITA site between February and mid-April - see

I guess you perhaps need to file both state/fed returns.
“어떤것을 준비해서 주면 돼는지? 아직기간이 많이 남은 것은 알지만
물건을 사고 받은 영수증 같은 것도 챙겨서 신고를 하는거라면 꼼꼼히 모아 놓으려고요!
짧은 답글이라도 해보신 경험이 있다면 조언 부탁드립니다.”---->It depends on yur visa status. Are you a US resident for tax purposes??? Or are yu a non resident alien???? As long as you are a US resident for tax purposes, then you, just like a reg US citizen/resident alien, are subject to US taxes on your US source and world wide income if you  have. income is generally subject to tax in the same manner as a U.S. citizen;you must report all interest, dividends, wages, or other compensation for services and other types of income on your U.S. tax return. You need to file 1040 or 1040A/1040EZ. Unless you itemize our dedcutions, you may use 1040A/1040EZ. You can claim personal exemptions and exemptions for dependents according to the dependency rules for U.S. citizens. You can claim an exemption for your spouse on a Married Filing Separate return if your spouse had no gross income for U.S. tax purposes and was not the dependent of another taxpayer. You can claim this exemption even if your spouse has not been a resident alien for a full tax year or is an alien who has not come to the US. You can claim an exemption for each person who qualifies as a dependent according to the rules for U.S. citizens.
If you are a non resident alien, then,y ou are NOT subject to US fica taxes on your income for the next five years. However, if your only U.S. source income is wages in an amount less than the personal exemption amount $3,700 for 2012, you are not required to file. If you were a nonresident alien student, teacher, or trainee who was temporarily present in the US on an J1visa, you are considered engaged in a trade or business in the US. You must file Form 1040NR (or Form 1040NR-EZ) only if you have income that is subject to tax, such as wages, tips, scholarship and fellowship grants, dividends, etc. You must file IRS Form 8843. Your dependent(spouse) in J-2 status must also file Form 8843. If you were in the U.S. even 1 day in 2012, you must file Form 8843.
 You need to provide me with more accuarate personal  info for accuarate response.
