Hi,
I am working on an H1B VISA in VA and got married in 2006. My wife is on a F1 student VISA in RI and does not have any earnings. I want to claim her as a dependent , but since she does not have a job, hence no SSN. What would be the procedure to follow in this case to claim her as a dependent. Is an ITIN number needed? If yes, then how to get it?
We are both Indians by nationality.
Thanks !
