Hi,

I have gone through some of the document, I'm bit of confused.

I moved on L1 to US on last year October (i.e Oct 2007) with My family. Based on the SPT, i'm not here more than 183 days in the last three year.

I just wanted to know, whether i should file as resident alien or non-resident? If i file as non-resident alien, which form should I use? can i file jointly with my wife (she also got her ssn, but she is not working)? Please advice me on this.

Thanks a lot in advance.

You have the OPTION of filing jointly with your wife and you BOTH choose to be treated as resident aliens. More than likely, that is the best option tax-wise, even though you must declare ALL world-wide income for 2007.
