| How to file 1040 joint return with UK source income? I have only US source income for this tax year. My wife has income in the UK for the last 3 months of the year and no income for the other months. How do we file this with the IRS - do we need any forms beyond a 1040? Is it helpful to file married-seperatly instead of married-jointly or would we be off worse? Is there a special tax treaty between the US and the UK? << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |
