i got reviewed in two days ...... my case is CR 1 

those who submitted first time they don't go according to the time they show in there current case review time

You were very lucky. I think you will find that is not the case. My first submission back in May took nearly 4 weeks and followed the timeline exactly.

there would be no issue because husband also filed tax as single 

What do you mean ?? I am the husband and i filed as single, my wife didn't file taxes before as she is not yet in the states.

That's definitely not the proper advise. If you're married you're supposed to either file married filing jointly or married filing separately.

 

Yes you can file without the person being in the states. 

(Printing it out and writing NRA (non-resident alien)) mailing it in 

Yes you can fix it by amending the filing. 

 

Search the forums for those that got delayed on filing single while married.

@pushbrk can chime in if he likes.

It doesn't cause any problem as i see many people filled as single .. yeah u can use married filling seprately BUT in our case, our tax preparer said my husband cant bcz im not there in US... your right as well to add spouse on taxes....But he can amend later....

Because the tax preparer is an immigration expert? You're all going to get requests for more proof of your marriages. 

 

Either way. If you're married on 12/31 all the way up to midnight. You're married. You falsely filed with the IRS. 

 

Good luck.

Read what happens when you file single as a married person.  It's recent. 

 

 

It's fixable. You file an amendment to the taxes. Only problem you can't do is e file. It was supposed to be a paper filing when your spouse has no social security

Yes. I would definitely not risk it. You don't want the interviewing officer suspecting marriage fraud and sending it back to USCIS. You have time I believe you're interviews are backlogged a bit right?

 

1040X is the form to file for amendment
