I hold a F-2 visa. I help my friend to be a participant in an experiment last summer and she gave me less than US $200 in return. I would like to ask whether I need to file a tax form for this income? I don't have ITIN or SSN. If so, what should I do?
Since my husband also participated in the experiment and he received a form stated this income from IRS but I didn't.
My husband needs to file a tax form. Do we summit together or we need to separate?
I came to US just about one and a half year. I don't know much about it.
Thank you very much.
