Application for citizenship but I owe taxes

[moka17t 0]

Hello everybody, 

I'm applying for citizenship based on marriage. I have 10 years Green card. I have everything ready but I have a taxes problem. We have been filling together since I came here to the US 3 years ago. She is makes most of the money but we didn't pay what we owe. We owe them 6 thousands dollars. I started a payment plan with IRS last month but her name only shows up on the IRS letter. We have our both names together that we filled. I personally owe nothing to IRS but we are married and fill it together. 

Should I tell them in the application that I own taxes or not since it's all under her name? Any suggestions? 

Thank you

Perfect example of the past coming back to bite you in the rear. Honesty is not that hard, not sure why it eludes so many people.  Get a good lawyer to help with the why you didn't pay.
