Hi

I was in US last year for more than 183 days( resident alien) .I returned back to India later in 2008 and got married .
I am currently in India and is in process for filing my US taxes .My queries are :
1.) Can I file tax for year 2008 as Married (wife never travelled to US) ?
2.)If Yes and if I need to apply ITIN for her , what all supporting documents I have to provide ? Does Notarized copy of her passort (only photo page) would do good or Do I need to furnish more documents (like marriage certificate etc) ?

Thanks in advance

Can someone please reply ?

Which visa do you have? When did you enter the U.S.

1) No, you cannot, because, even though you met the Substnatial Presence Test, you were NOT in the U.S. for every day since 1 January 2008, and you are NOT currently in the U.S. to file jointly with your wife.
