Anyone file Married Filing Seperate using TurboTax? I am stuck on Community Property Income section.

My wife will be here on April 17th, so she doesn't have SSN yet. I am filing MFJ and planing to enter NRA for my wife social security, then print out the form to mail it in. I don't understand and don't know what to enter in the Community Property Income section. If I answer NO to the question below, then it asks me to enter a few other items that I don't know what to enter. If anyone used TurboTax, please help.

Do you have any community property adjustments or community income to report for 2014? - Yes/No

You cannot MFJ with entering NRA. You'd have to apply for an ITIN to do MFJ. You can MFS with NRA but you have to print the return and mail it in. This is the easiest to get the return done now. Alternatively, as suggested, if you do not owe taxes simply file an extension then do your taxes when she arrives.

Sorry I meant to say MFS. Anyone knows what to enter for community property tax section in TurboTax?
