If she was a dual status alien in 2005 (nonresident alien at the beginning of the year and a resident alien at the end of the year) then you both need to make a decision relating to the first year election.

Thus, if your wife has a green card, this does not apply to her. As a green card holder, she is subject to US taxes just as if she were a citizen, even if her income comes from her native country.

| 1040 or 1040NR Hello, I'm in the process of using TaxCut's online software. On one of the first pages, the app asks me whether several conditions apply to either my spouse or me. One of them is "non US citizen or resident alien". This pertains to my wife who has her green card. I am a citizen. The following page claims that TaxCut doesn't support 1040NR?! Isn't 1040NR intended for non-resident aliens (those w/o their green cards)? << ================================================== ===== > << The foregoing is intended for educational purposes only > << and does NOT constitute legal OR professional advice. > << > << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org. > << Copyright (2006) - All rights reserved. > << ================================================== ===== > |
