Test that it works

Start a new chat and ask:

Use Kyoto. I entered the US on March 15, 2023 as a tourist, changed to F-1 student status on November 15, 2023, and I'm still a student. I follow my visa rules and have not applied for a green card. I'm single. Am I a US tax resident for 2025?

Kyoto may ask a question or two first. The answer should say that you are a nonresident for 2025 and that you must send Form 8843, the statement for students and exchange visitors.
