m****4 发帖数: 827 | 1 第一年从F1转成H1B, 看了很多关于dual status和first year choice都还是不明白:
背景:2011年10月成为H1B, 之前F1(含1个多月OPT),已婚,spouse在美国H4身份
看到很多人的做法是file extension,等到2012年5月能通过2012的183天substantial
test之后,能够使2011年也能按照resident alien来报。
问题是,2011年是算以下哪种情况?
1. 全年resident alien - 似乎不大可能。因为pub 519中写道:
If you are a dual-status alien, you can choose to be treated as a U.S.
resident for the entire year if all of the following apply.
- You were a nonresident alien at the beginning of the year.
- You are a resident alien or U.S. citizen at the end of the year.
- You are married to a U.S. citizen or resident alien at the end of the year.
- Your spouse joins you in making the choice.
我没有满足第三条
2. 成为Dual-status。这是我最不解的,因为IRS上写明了dual status既不能file
jointly,又不能享受standard deduction。那我搞这个first year choice,有什么获
益吗?
3.10月之前是nonresident alien,用1040NR报。10月之后是resident alien,用1040
报 (就是用两张表报税)。因为收入主要在10月份之后,所以在1040上可以享受
standard deduction和married file jointly,从而省税。
请做过或者知道的指点一下,实在被搞糊涂了!谢谢 |

become resident on Jun-02,2012. You are not dual status anymore.
Then file married jointly
But you better calculate the both NR and R ,choose the better one.

也是f1-h1,如果married to 来美超过5年的f1,是不是就满足上面的条件,直接当
Resident 报税呢?

m****4 发帖数: 827 | 4 为什么不考虑dual status? first-year choice的确让我变成dual status啊!?
难道因为我是married jointly, 就可以变成全年的resident?
谢谢!

p******r 发帖数: 1279 | 6 同问阿!真的搞糊涂了
pub519上写了dual status不能有standard deduction.
但又有人说file married jointly就可以全年按resident来报,就不属于dual status
,就可以有standard deduction。
到底真相是什么啊? |
