Hey guys! Hope someone went through this and can help me out. Back in 2013, I was an Au Pair, but couldn t file my taxes bc I lost my SSN (tried to retrieve it, was already back in the Netherlands and US can t provide it without you being here in person). Anyway, since I can file for my 10yr GC around April 2021 and citizenship in about 1,5 years, I want to get it done now.
My question is, should I fill all the personal info out as if it was back than? For example, it asks if you ever applied for a GC and if you ever changed your visa status. Back than the answer was no, of course now I have a GC (since 2019) and moved back here in 2018 on a K1. Also, I took my husbands name, but in 2013 I wasn t married, so I had my maiden name.
I would think I would have to fill it out with info from back than, just don t wanna get in trouble with immigration for lying on my tax forms, which I m obviously not trying to do. Any insight would be much appreciated!
I m also planning on adding a letter with an explanation to the IRS, so they know it s good intent.
Thanks!
