Hi,
I have been on H1 Visa since 2006 and got married in Dec 2010. My spouse is not in US, he has a SSN though as he has worked here in US in 2007. Can I file the taxes as Married filing jointly? I guess then we have show his income in our home country?
Or should I file Married filing separately? Can I get exemptions on him?
Please help which status is better for tax benefits?
Thanks
