My hu*****and changed to H-1 from F-1 in early 2003. In 2003, he spent more than six months on business trips outside the States. The job was his only source of income during the year. I've been on my OPT and working for a company in another state.
Here are my questions,
1. Is 1040 the right form for my hu*****and?
2. Can we file joint federal return? If yes, how can we file state return, then?
3. If we can file joint return, that means I elect to be treated as resident. Do I need to fill out any other form to notify IRS?
Thanks in advance!
