If you dont have an SSN and cant get one, you can get an "ITIN" (Individual Tax Identification Number) which can be used instead. You still need to go to your local social security office and get one.

No, they need to submit a W-7 with the tax return so that she will be assigned one. SS office is for social security numbers.

No, the ITIN comes from IRS so you can file and pay taxes, use form W-7 or contact IRS and they will assist you in getting one set up. The actual SS # will have to come and be applied for at local security office in person.

oops sorry guys. Bad advice on my part. I knew about the ITIN, I just assumed you get it at the SS office . I had to go get an SSN initially even before I had any visas in the US and I assumed this case was analogous. Sorry. So yes you need an ITIN but i was wrong about the procedure.

If you came here on a K1 in Jan 2006 then how did your Husband clain for you on his taxes last year??? As for getting a ITIN you came file for one now using form W-7 (download from http://www.irs.gov ) or you can file the form W-7 along with your tax return if you are filling by mail...
