Hi, I have recently moved to USA on 10th December
2016 on H1B visa. I am married but my wife is currently in India, and she is
not having any income source in India. So for filling tax return, I have some
question, please find them below.
1)
Do I need
to file as “married filing separately / married filing jointly”?
2)
What will be my taxable married status ‘single /
married’? As per w-2 form it is single.
3)
If I filled for married filing jointly, what do
I have select for “States your spouse lived”?
4)
As my wife is in India and non-employed, she didn’t
have SSN or ITIN, so how to file married filing jointly? Or do I have to file married
filing separately?
Please suggest. Thanks in advance.
