I just spoke to my attorney about the filing status I should for my 2008. He told me to file as single since my wife is in Pakistan, and in order to file married I would need her SS#. So, I guess it's ok to file as single for those people whose husband/wife is abroad. Can anyone share their opinion? Thanks.

I totally agree with SerenityHope because that's what my husband did even though our attorney also disapproved on filing as married since I'm here in the Philippines. But as I consulted our family lawyer here and the pair of legal (FYI, we just met this nice lady) who handled my husband tax return, they both told us there's nothing wrong in what we did, filing as married, it is totally legal. They said it doesn't matter where your spouse is, what matter most is that you are LEGALLY MARRIED.
