ITIN for k2 in AOS process

[D. Sala 68]

Hi guys hopefully you can help me, we are in the process of AOS, I already have my combo card and SSN, but for my son (k2) the haven't issued the combo card so no SSN so far, would it be possible to get an ITIN number for him for tax season? Is it advisable? He is only 7 y.o.

 

Thank you

If you want to claim the dependent,  you need one or the other.  You would file the w7 with the tax return filing

When was the child's EAD application submitted? There's still some time before April 15. With his SSN you can claim the child's "Recovery Rebate" credit of $1100: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i1040gi.pdf "Line 30"

We submit our papers back in late May, we had our biometrics in August and our case is ready to be schedule for a interview since August too. We were hoping to have his SSN before that day but it just seems uncertain so we were thinking about an ITIN

I assume based on your response,  you did not file the i765 for EAD for the child...

Yes we did. I-485, I-765 and I-131,  I recieve my combo card and SSN in October we though his was going to be send a little bit later but only his 485 was modified to ready to schedule interview

We are in the same boat as you. K-1 received combo card in December, nothing for K-2. Both filed and did biometrics at same time.
