Hello
I came to US on Aug 2004- filed as NRA for 2004
2005- Filed as Resident
2006- Filed as resident( Applied ITIN for my wife and daughter, filed as married joint filing, availed child care credit too)
2007- Filed -same as 2006(resident- married joint filing, availed child care credit)
I went back to India on Jul2007.
Again I came back to US on Oct 2009. I will be in US till end of 2010.
Question
1. which form I can use to file for 2009(1040 EZ or 1040 EZ NR)?
2. I read an article about "First year choice" .Can I use "first year choice" in Pub 519
3. If I can go for "First year choice" what is the procedure to do the same. Do I need to apply ITIN for my daughter and wife again?
4. If I can go for "First year choice", can I file as (resident- married joint filing, can avail child care credit)?
BTW: I am not a student( I came to US in H1 and now I'm in L1)
Can Someone please respond.
