Guys, Quick Qs.
I came to visit friends and family in China right after getting my US citizenship then found a job here and stayed. Now two years passed, My husband and I got married by the end of 2009 in China and I figured even I remain single for almost the entire 2009, we still need to file tax return as married.
Let's say we go with jointly and get my husband (non-resident alien) a TIN with W7.
1.What Forms do we need to file tax return?
2.We are planning to move back to US in a year or two. Would there be any prob for me, since I left US right after becoming citizen for two years straight? BTW, I don't think I'll have time to go back to US in the coming one year or two as well due to my job in China. Is there some sort of residence requirement for naturalied US citizen living aboard to maintain their citizenship?
P.S.Filing oversea income seems quite key in terms of maitain your citizenship for those who lived aboard from what I heard.
Please answer. Thanks in advance.
