Hi
I moved from F1 to H1 this Oct 2008. I got married on Nov 19th and my wife came to USA on Dec 7th. I was wondering if I can file the tax as "Status - married and filling jointly".
Or shall I wait for 183 days( from Dec 7 + 183 = 12th June) to file my tax, so that I can file jointly and get the 10000 deductions.
Or can I file for tax return now and get the deduction of 10000.
Thanks
Abhishek
