You want to check 10 C, because 10 A should read "Applicable to RESIDENT and NONRESIDENT" -- since it is just you moving to the US, you want 10 C

As per question 9, you are a 2 a (non resident emigrating to the US). Therefore, since 10 C is applicable to a non-resident only, that's the one you check.

thank you ! look like there is some kind of bug on the upack form downlodable from their website then (or because i'm temporary on mac....but it's weird). I got the one from the official website and it is written resident and non resident.

but as a non resident should i check all the 10 A and 10C case (even if i do not bring a vehicule or work stuff or i just leave those blanks ?)
