Hi
I (L1-visa) had been here in US for more than 1 year and my wife joined me in dec-5 ,2007.Currently she is not having any job and is in L-2 visa.
How can I apply for a tax jointly when I think I can go through the form 1040-EZ ( since I have been here for more than 180 days) ,but she is here only for 25 days for year 2007 and I think she needs to go through from (1040NR).
What is the best way to approach this situation so that I can get maximum returns.
