Hi Experts,

Need one urgent guidance.

I am New to USA on H1B - Getting Paid from January 20 2010 and will be here probably for a year.

Do I need to -

1. Register with IRS like we have to obtain SSN etc
2. File IT return in USA for year 15 April 2010

Pls guide. I am very scared and confused. Pls explain.

Regards
Sunando
 
Go to local SS office and apply for SSN. Take your documents to make it easy on you.

April 15, 2010 is the filing date for 2009 returns. You don't have to worry about filing for another year. It is in your best interest to read the current year's information so that you know what documents are important to collect during 2010. Most ares automatically sent to you by your employer and financial institutions in Jan of the next year so be sure to keep updated mailing addresses with every place.

In most cases, the filing is simple; only if you purchase a house or have significant unearned or other business income do you start to need professional assistance.
