    Taxes filling and ITIN for dependents on L2
    Couple of quick facts,
    1. I'm on L2B work visa and had federal tax deductions (no state tax for TX) on my income, indicated on my W2 form from the employer, with my SSN on it.
    2. Have been in US for 72 days in 2010. And less than 180 days in last three years and hence being treated as “Nonresident Align”
    3. Have my spouse with me in US on L2 (not authorized to work status) and doesn’t have a SSN/ITIN.
    4. Have my son (toddler) with me in US on L2 (not authorized to work status) and doesn’t have a SSN/ITIN and is not availing any day care.
    Need help to understand,
    1. Is my understanding on my residency status (“Nonresident Align”) correct?
    2. What tax filling Form (1040/1040NR/1040NR-EZ/…) should I use to file tax return?
    3. What all rebates that I can claim?
    4. -While filing through TurboTax, it shows that I’m eligible for “Making Work Pay Credit” of $800 apart from other federal credit. What is “Making Work Pay Credit” and am I eligible for this credit given the residency status?
    5. How can I get ITIN for my spouse and kid? Should I just submit W7 (with supporting) along with my tax return and it should be taken care? How will I get to know the ITIN for future use?
    6. How and by when I should expect the refund in case of paper filling.
