Hi everyone. I'll be filing my taxes today and we already have a W7 ready to be filed with my 1040. I'm using turbotax and it indicating that I don't have any info which state my wife lives in since she's still not in the country. What should I put in there? Can I just put in not in that she is outside the US? Thanks.

Your case seems the same as mine, My wife has never been to the US also. On my 2011 Taxes I filed form 1040, "Married filing Separate" and in the area for Spouses Social Security Number I put: NRA..(NRA Means Non Residents Alien)

No ITIN was required!

Good luck :thumbs:

Until your wife is living in the US and has a SSN, you have to do taxes by paper (because you just can't fill out some boxes appropriately). You will not be able to do it through online software.
