Hi,
I’m on f1 student visa, my wife also is on f1 student visa and we have a baby, we are from Jordan,we both have scholarship from the same school,this is our 3rd year in the US.

1)which forms do we have to use for Taxes?

2)can we file as jointly married or do we have to file separately ?can we claim our baby as Dependant or not?

3)how much can we claim for standard deductions and Exemption deduction?

Thanks.

1) You will EACH have to file Form 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ, plus whatever state tax forms.

2) As non-resident aliens, you cannot file jointly. Also, you probably cannot claim your child as a dependent.

3) You do NOT get the standard deduction.; the personal exemption is $3,300.
Hope it helps!
