If EAD arrives before you file your return, simply visit SSA and apply for SSN, and use SSN when filing your return.

Moving this to "Working and Traveling before getting green-card"

If you file with application for ITIN you will have to paper file ugh.

Here's what we did. My wife arrived (K3) last Jan. We just waited until her EAD/SS card came in and filed late (May 15th). I called the IRS and talked to a specialist. As we overpaid and were due a refund, I was told that there was no penalty in filing late and in fact the IRS told me we could wait until Oct 15th to file and still qualify for the stimulus package. (We did get it hehe).

We filed married/joint, included her income, excluded it on the foreign earned income exclusion and "physical presence/tax home" test, and received our refund about (2) weeks after we filed, stimulus about 6 weeks after we filed.

Don't forget to include the letter stating that (if you file married/joint) you are choosing to qualify your spouse as resident for all of 2008.

Based on your timeline it appears you probably will have the EAD/SS card before April 15th...

 

i don't get it.
