Mn't sure if you are allowed to file your tax jointly when u are a Non Resident Alien. That is if you fill up 1040 NR/1040NR EZ forms. In case if u intend to fill out 1040, u should be able to do that. The instructions in the forms are comprehensive enuf to help you out.

  thank you so much for advice.

If you file as non-resident alien, I am guessing it will be more beneficial to file as a single and claim itemized deduction ( which will be more than standard deduction). Most universities may not let you know that you can itemize and get more refund.
