Hi all,

I got married in January 2014, my tax return filing status for year 2013 says single since I was not married in 2013. Is this going to cause an issue during consular processing? Do I need to get an amended tax return for year 2013? Thank you for your feedback in advance.

Your filing status should reflect your legal status on December 31, 2013. Since you were married in January 2014, single is the appropriate tax filing status for you for tax year 2013.
