老公H1B postdoc, 我是H4(无收入), 联邦税填的是Resident Alian filing jointly. 并申请了ITIN号.

在康州11个月, 不到entire tax year, 填non-resident. 请问我们可以 file as married filing jointly吗?

因为instructions上的概念有点自相矛盾, 所以不是很确定.

1. Page14 - Where both spouses are nonresidents and only one spouse hase Connecticut source income, the spouse who is required to file a Connecticut income tax return must file as married filing separately unless:

1) They file jointly for federal income tax purposes; AND

2) They elect to be treated as if both had Connecticut source income.

从这点看, 应该可以填jointly.

2. Page 6 - A married nonresident alien may not file a joint Connecticut income tax return unless the nonresident alien is married to a citizen or resident of the U.S. and they have made an election to file a joint federal income tax return.

从这点看, 似乎有不可以填.

请大家帮忙看看. 谢谢.
