友。可以一起报吗？一起报会省一些吗（有什么extra credit)？还有听说夫妻要住在
一起半年以上，才可以算family一起报，对吗？
还有附带的一个问题，Opt时候（04年F1来得美国）前5000还可以免税吗？ |

发帖数: 278 | 3 For federal tax return,you can file married jointly.
It's not required that the couple must live together at least half year. The
half year limitation is for dependant. Your wife is not your dependant.
Only you doesn't meet your wife during the whole year, you must file married
file seperatly. |

jointly filing?
