I am in H1b Visa, my wife came here in H4 visa in Nov 15, 2006.

Can I fill 1040 for 2006 jointly with my wife so that we can receive 13000 standard deduction? She needs a ITIN? She can not have a SSN.

Even she has been the States for only one and half month in 2006, we can still fill jointly, correct? But I need wait till May 2007 to file our return?

Thanks a lot for your answer!
