好像是啊!

yes, only resident

resident一定要是拿到绿卡的那种吗?看来偶是没戏了，偶gg是在这儿耗了5年以上的H1B，弱弱的问，他能拿到rebate吗？ 赫赫

Resident here means resident for federal tax. You gg should qualify for it. But he needs to file 1040 in stead of 1040NR.

in fact you could choose to be considered as resident with your gg, file 1040, so that both of you can get the tax rebate.. Also, filing as resident could save you more tax..
oh, btw, he should be your husband, not bf.

for your gg, he should be able to get the rebate if his AIG is below $75,000 something..
