家有新生兒的報稅問題 - 海外工作

2009年家裡添了第一枚新生兒

前陣子在翻BabyTalk雜誌時看到一篇跟報稅tips有關的文章

當中提到，如果家中有新生兒，經常意味著家裡有換車的需求

雜誌上提到：

"Even if your baby was born at 11:59 pm on December 31, you can claim
her as an additional dependent exemption worth $3,650 on your income
tax return. A new baby often means you need to upgrade your car. You
can now deduct the sales tax if you bought your new wheels (at a
purchase price of up to $49,500) by this date."


請問一下，我們今年是H1第二年，應該終於度過transition，要開始用resident報稅

因為生小孩的關係，我們去年12月中換了一台二手的SUV（有貸款）

請問我們的身分和狀況適合上述文章的條件嗎？

二手車是否也可以去deduct sales tax？
