Regarding filing status

[Me and my wife 9]

I looked the posting from other people. They disagreed with me. I was getting a different answer from different people. Some said single , some married filing seperately and other jointly. Today I went to IRS assistance center and talked with tax professional around half an hour. She told me that I have to file either filing jointly or married filing seperately. She told me:

1 GEt the passport copy notorized

2 Fill 1040 form and should be signed by both husband and wife

3 Get w-7 filled and signed from spouse

4 Submit w-7 along with 1040 at IRS assistance center or by mail to IRS

I am sorry I had posted wrong information based on the H & R block, jason and hewitt, and tax professional. When I asked her if I will have penalty, she told me that filing wrong information is subject to examination. Then I realized that it is better to file jointly as I get more return and a good proof that we are married. That is my thought. It is up to you.

Hello LOTO, I have another question. Since I have not filed tax return, and I have to wait 6-8 week alone for tax return, Can I include this year tax return on I-864? I have been approved and hoping to get NVC sooner. Please advice

[George & Gina 29]

Correct. Looks like a repeat of what I've said many times.

If you file this return soon you may be able to use it with your 864. You may not be able to get a transcript for it yet, but you can use a copy of the actual return along with all of the supporting documents (W-2s, 1099s, schedules, worksheets, etc.) that were sent with the return.

George&Gina is correct

Me and my wife, Take a copy of 2010 filings (Main form and schedules) with W2/1099 to provide to NVC. Since you are showing as MFJ/MFS, it will be a good bona-fide relationship proof at interview time.
