I am on J1 visa as physician alien from July 2013, my wife is on J2 visa and she is not doing any work, my son is citizen and he was born in August 2016. For the last 3 years I used to file my tax return as non resident alien (married filing separately). This year I noticed that if I can be considered as resident alien and so I file as married filing jointly with my son as dependent I will be able to get a lot more tax return. My question can I file as resident alien or I still considered non resident alien?.
