    H4 Filed Tax for 2006 with H1 as Hof H;Do I have to file for 2007
    Hi,
    I am on H4 from 2006. Filed tax for 2006 using ITN with my spouse(H1) as Joint Return. My spouse wants to do Married filing Separately FOR 2007. My question is for 2007,
    1) Do I need to file a separate return in spite of lack of income(H4) ?
    2) Or do I just leave it as such and not file at all?
    3) I received my SSN on December,2007. If I file tax for 2008 next year, will I encounter any glitch or trouble.

    Kindly help,
    Thanks

    1 & 2) If you have NO income, you have NO REQUIREMENT to file.

    3) No.
