Hi,

The last time I asked the taxes question on this forum, I was asked to have my husband amend his taxes from 'single' to 'married filing separately.'

We then decided to wait and file 2012 taxes and amend the past two years at the same time. The tax guy told my husband that

in order to do that I need a ITIN. I reviewed the ITIN form and here are my questions;

1) The form asks for visa info and when it expires. I have been here for 16 years. My I-94 got lost but I have my FOIA records, they

do not state the date for I-94 expiration. Will that be a problem? I have been reading where USCIS/ICE is visiting people now will this work against me after my 'status' is submitted to IRS?

2) My passport and home country ID have expired though I have them. The Embassy here has flat out denied to renew either one and told me I have to go

Back home first to get it done. Does the IRS accept expired identification?

3) If I submit the information with IRS transcripts showing filing status as 'single' and then amend the taxes after I get my EAD, will I be denied my AOS?

4) How is this situation working against/for me?

Please help me get to the bottom of this. I am ready to file but want to make everything done correctly. This is the only thing that I need to rectify.

Thank you so much!

This forum is not really about tax issues. Tax law is an entirely separate industry and you're better off asking those that are more experienced in tax-related questions. The advice you may receive is generally going to be less reliable than immigration-related responses.

In response to your question #3, it probably has little effect given what I know (very limited) about your situation.

Thanks for responding....would like to know if anyone has ever filed with tax status being 'single' and got denied

or got an REF to change their tax status.

Anyone?

They said that they will give me 'Travel Document' to present at the airport and once I get back home then I can renew

both passport and ID.

Oh, ok. My husband had a travel document issued to him from China. If your embassy will give you one of those, it should be an acceptable form of identification for the IRS and maybe (don't quote me on this) even the USCIS if you didn't want to return home. I'd ask though. My husband used his travel document for everything (travel etc.) for years before he received his Japanese citizenship. The one from China at least basically IS a passport.

Mmmm I'll look into that. It's worth a try.
