感謝dusa大大的協助,這樣一來我比較有概念了. 看來還是找會計師來幫忙報稅比較不怕弄錯細節. 不知道有沒有推薦的會計師呢?我現在工作地點是在Santa Clara, San Jose這一帶, 如果有版友有名單可以推薦的話,還請不吝賜教,謝謝各位. ※ 引述《dusa (YPL)》之銘言: : ※ 引述《singingman (老人)》之銘言: : : 小弟去年六月從台灣拿L1來加州工作,老婆仍然留在台灣工作,尚未申請L2赴美生活. : : 因為今年要開始在美國報稅,爬文之後了解配偶是exemption不是dependent. : : 由於老婆以前在美國念書打工有申請了SSN,所以請教版上各位前輩我是否可以在今年 : : 報稅的時候以稅務居民的身份用她的SSN報Married Jointly Filing? : Yes, you have to file a statement according to the following: : https://www.irs.gov/Individuals/International-Taxpayers/Nonresident-Spouse-Treated-as-a-Resident : : 如果可以的話,老婆是不是也要把台灣的收入向美國一起報稅? : Yes, if you claim your nonresident spouse as resident, her worldwide : income for the entire year needs to be included on 1040 with you. : You are both subject to FBAR (form 114) reporting too. : : 她的台灣收入是否有tax credit可以抵免呢? : Yes, however, you may take foreign earned income exclusion concurrently. : Normal case is the entire foreign earned income is excluded so no foreign : tax can be applied. : : 另外我在去年六月前有到美國出差50天,relocate前的台灣收入是否需向美國繳稅呢? : : 希望各位有經驗的前輩們能給小弟一些意見或建議,謝謝各位. : Yes, you have to include your worldwide income for the entire year too. : There is another option for situation like yours - do a "dual-status" in : which you are treated as resident only for the part you're in the US. : Therefore you only report your worldwide income during the time you are in : the US. You cannot file jointly with your wife but may claim her exemption : on your tax return. : I suggest you calculate both situations and see which one is more favorable. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 75.25.129.202 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Oversea_Job/M.1454385472.A.1E8.html

其實你的case並不複雜,用軟體(turbotax之類的)就行了

軟體也會幫你比較resident vs dual status的差別

這種 first year resident的情形非常普遍,也沒什麼爭議
