今年填税表的时候，我算了三个人的exempetion，老公和两个宝宝，我闲赋在家，身份不明，很自觉地排除在外了。谁至昨天受到一份信，说因为老公是nonresident alien,所以只能算他一个人的exemption。今天我打了电话去，解释说宝宝是us citizen，可是，他们仍然说，这是老公的file，要根据老公的status决定。我填得是1040NR，别人好像都可以给宝宝退税，我怎么这么倒霉？一会儿还想打电话去理论，可是，不知道该说什么，有没有哪位大侠给指点一下，教教我该怎么说，有什么条例法规可以引用？一来一去差700块钱呢，我能买多少好东西呀！先谢谢了。

looks like it is not OK this year,next year bah, I don't know if you clian Baobao's credit this year.I guess not,:(
anyway,next year,ur husband can claim you and ur baobao as dependant as 1040.It will be quite much.

nonresident alien can't claim any dependent.

I think H1 can. F1 must fill in 1040NR, but H1 can file 1040.

How long do you stay here? If you stay in US more than 5 years, your husband can fill the tax return form like US resident. First $7000 no tax and family members are also counted as dependence.($1000 per person no tax) If you stay in US less than 5 years, you can not use family member to reduce tax.
