treaty or standard deduction

I'm on academic H1 and my hu*****and is H4. We're filing jointly 1040+8833. After reading posts downstairs, I'm confused. If I claim treaty benefits on my wage, could I still apply standard deduction and exemption to my other incomes? Your inputs will be highly appreciated.

• 你可以自由选择合/单报, 同时有TREATY和STD折扣. -stp- ♀ (0 bytes) () 04/08/2004 postreply 11:11:37
