Unless you made taxable income from that transaction you no need to worry.It will not affect your F1I am on a F-1 visa and I did some transactions (I think about 5) last year ( Sept- Nov) using Scottrade. I did not derive any profit/income.
1) Does it affect my F-1 Status in anyway? NO
2) Do I have file form I-1099, when I do my taxes?
Thanks. What should I do, if I receive a I-1099 for it? Should I file it or ignore it?
Could it be used against me as unauthorized employment by USCIS/DHS? I believe that under F-1 status only W-2 and I-1040 forms are filed usually.
