Hi,
I am on F1 visa status, I came to the US in 2016. So I qualify for filing as a resident alien for my 2021 tax return. I am married. My spouse was on F2 visa during 2021 and converted the status to F1 in December 2021. She got her SSN in January 2022. Now both me and my spouse have SSNs. I am using TurboTax for my tax return and I am planning to use the married jointly filing status. Can you please help with following questions,
1. TurboTax recommends me using the standard deduction. Am I eligible for that?
2. We did not receive any stimulus payments. TurboTax applies the recovery rebate credit in my federal return. Am I eligible for the recovery rebate credit?
Thank You
