Help! Tax return rejected and ssn problem!!!

[Lucia21 0]

Hello. Send yesterday my husband (usc) taxes (married fill separately) because I worked just one month in summer and didn't recieve my w2 yet, but I still put my name and ssn which ssa gave me for my visa till August, but they return it back and say that my name and ssn not matching.

May be because im already "overstay" my visa so they closed my ssn,

But what to do now,

Fill my husband like single? Because I'm illegal

And don't put my ssn to applications on green card but they gave me that so I can't lie that I have no ssn.

Need advice

Thank you

Well you need to go to SS office to check with your name on file. SSN is for life, they don't cancel it.

NancyNguyen, but you think I'm not gonna get in troubles that I have visa overstay already???

No, SSN and tax have nothing to do with immigration.

As noted above, IRS and SSA don't care about immigration.

Once you get your SSN sorted out, you should file MFJ. There is likely no benefit to MFS. Your husband cannot file Single.

Thanks everyone:)

I figured out, it just was a mistake in my second name so it didn't match, and I finally received my w2 so we applied "married filling jointly " and IRS already answered that accepted it.

So we need clip our w2 and turbo tax form(for AOS I mean) ? Because we have no tax transcript yet:)

From the instructions--

"If you provide a photocopy of your tax return(s), you must include a copy of each and every Form W-2 and Form 1099 that relates to your return(s). Do not include copies of these Forms if you provide an IRS transcript of your return(s) rather than a photocopy."

TurboTax prints a lot of extra stuff for your files like worksheets, comparisons, and such. Only use the actual forms that are for filing. They will generally be called Form [number] or Schedule [letter].

I am in similar situation but a little bit more complicated.

My husband made a mistake on his 2012 tax return, then he unknowingly filed for taxes in 2013 but they were rejected due to previous mistake and misplaced w2.

We have been working with CPA to amend all the previous years taxes. And she just filed for us this year as married filed jointly as I am a graduate student have been working for the same institution for the last 4 years.

So my question is that. what would be better for us to do: wait until we can get all IRS transcripts from last 3 years or file for AOS now with 1099 and my w2? He has been self-employed for the last 2 years so no w2s there.

What are the odds that I will get an RFE if we submit only photocopies of tax returns and 1099 and schedule c without actual IRS tax transcript?

I am just afraid that the whole return process may end up taking a while (more than 3 months) and I will be out of status soon. Should we still wait on IRS to process the returns. we already know that we owe back taxes and interest on them....

I don't know the odds, but that is a perfectly correct way to submit your tax documents. Many RFEs are because the people don't know what to send. They send a return without the W2 or a W2 by itself. Make sure you send every page and form of the tax return. A self-employed person normally would have a Schedule SE as well as Schedule C.

And know that Line 22 of your 1040 is where they look for the income level to be enough. With self-employed who take many business deductions, it will be lower than his gross income that he takes in.

Also fill out the I-864 correctly. If your job income is being used, then you are listed as a family member on his I-864. Include something that shows you are authorized to work in the US so they will count your income.

Many details, so read the I-864 form instructions carefully.

I read all the instructions on how to fill all the forms in properly but still have some concerns esp. when different people tell me different things.

I have I-20 as a student and of course I have a work authorization to work part time (20 hours a week on campus). Because we filed jointly this year and my income is around $19000, so our combined income would be way above the poverty line for 3 family members (he has a son who lives with us). Would the USCIS only consider my husband's income or our combined income???

My main concern is that I have read that USCIS does not count intended immigrant's income even if he/she works legally unless that person can prove that this sort of income will be long lasting even after the immigrant receive the green card, is that correct?
