    You and your wife can file jointly, claining your child as a dependent.

    You get THREE exemptions. Put your wife's name under yours, leabing her SSN blank. Put your child's name in block 6c, leaving the SSN blank.

    Attach TWO W-7s (one for wife, one for child), plus notarized photocopies of their passports, to the tax form, then mail it to the address in the W-7 instructions.
