    J1 married to an american how to fill taxes?
    Hi,
    I was in United States on J1 visa(working visa). 4 months before my visa ended I got married to an american. How do I do my taxes? As resident(I applied for change of status but got no response yet, I am in a process, it is pending)? As non resident (Like I used to file)? Please help me...
    Should I file my taxes with my husband or separatly? As nonresident J1 visa holder I used to get all federal tax back.
