Hi,
I am an H1-B visa holder, and in U.S since Dec 2005. My husband is on H4 visa and visited U.S from April 17- June 24, 2006. Now when I am filing taxes for 2006, can I apply for w-7 for him, he is not here but in India now. Then can I get the benefits of a married and filing joint return? Then in that case do I have to wait for state tax filing till I hear from IRS- then how does this affect deadline for tax filing , will IRS give an extended time for state tax filing .
THANKS
BINDU.
