    You should list your dependent family members in your tax returns. You can get an IRS ITIN for them for you to complete your tax filings. Check the IRS website to download the from W-7.

    You can file joint return as resident and claim your kids as dependents. If they do not have SSN, attach W-7 with the tax return. H1-B tax filing: Your U.S. Tax Return: The U.S. Visas
