个月，那我2008年是不是可以file jointly？（老公没有收入）那2007年老公没来美国
能不能file jointly呢？
我2006年毕业，回国一年半，来美继续postdoc，是不是可以用researcher 5000块免税
3年的那个treaty呀？

2. Due to the Savings Clause of the U.S.-China Tax treaty, those who come to
the U.S. under either a "F: or "J" visa, then convert to a work visa, can
STILL claim the $5,000 treaty exemption AND, once they start filing as a
resident alien, select the $5,350 standard deduction.
AS for your other question, your husband can file jointly with you and
CHOOSE to be treated as a resident alien. However, in doing so, he LOSES his
exemption from Social | w*****y
发帖数: 34 | 4 谢谢楼上的回答了！不过还是有点糊涂，不明白和老公file jointly要不要求老公在美
国？或者至少当年在美国多少天呢？
另外既然老公完全没有收入，他就不交任何税呀？为什么说 “he LOSES his
exemption from Social Security and Medicare taxes for 2008 and beyond”，难
道没有收入的人还要交税？
再次感谢了！
