stp请帮忙看看tax question -郁闷ing.....- (385 bytes)

IRS is indeed vague in this respect but let's base our discussion on obeying-the-law.

Which form? of course 1040/1040A.

single or married file jointly? or separately?

I still think married jointly or separately either way the spouse needs itin. I don't think itin can be obtained from outside US. Quote from W-7 instuction.

g. Dependent/spouse of a nonresident
alien visa holder. This is an individual who
may be claimed as a dependent or a spouse
on a U.S. tax return and who is unable, or not
eligible, to obtain an SSN and has entered
the United States with a nonresident visa
holder. For example, the primary visa holder
has a B-1 visa; the dependent or spouse has
a B-2 visa.

Similartome: you omitted the last half: and has entered
the United States with a nonresident visa holder.
