I Changed to F-1 on Sep.2004, I filed with 1040 as a Resident for last year's tax because My previous status H-1 dominates. I live in US less than 5 yrs, I have the following questions:
a)Which form should I use this year, 1040, 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ?
b) My wife has no income and we have a child, can I filed as head of household ?
c) can we deduct the tuition fee ?
d) one of indian guy in our department used 1040NR and filed as a siingle, then he got $8000 deduction even without treaty. then can I combine this with the chinese treaty?
