My wife is on F-1(NRA) and I am an RA for tax purposes and I have been filing married jointly for the last 2 years ( 2009 and 2010). I understand that my wife can be treated as RA for tax purposes because of my status and we can file jointly. But I forgot to attach a written statement with my 2009 return stating that we are making such an election. I wasn't sure if I should have done it with 2010 at least. Any help on what to do from here? Should I file an amended return for 2009 and 2010?
Thanks and appreciate the help.
