@aff 88, having gone through the above interaction , my questions are : (a) You are from Jordan and entered USA in Dec 2018 { were you here in USA before that, what are dates of entering and leaving and with what visa }; (b) your wife is in the USA { with a visa -- which visa, or is a citizen/resident ? }; (c) the child was born in the USA {is he registered as a citizen ? or ? -- generally depends on the ctizenship of the parents unless some action is taken }; (d) you say you did not earn any US sourced income { why nare you filing , is your wife employed , does she have SSN or ITIN ? }
Need these answers to determine if you are a resident / resident alien for tax purposes. Generally, a non resident alien is treated as single . Please answer
