  1. If you read it again, I was stating we are planning to walk in like the DMV.
  2. Oh… when you did apply thru SSA, how long did your process take to receive the card?
  3. Thank you so much! Will look into the website you provided me :)
  4. Greetings All, Sharing some information with everyone at the same time have a question if anyone was in the similar situation as I am in. So my spouse has got the green light to receive her EAD within 10 days from her notification. The process took about 6 1/2 months all together for those wondering (in VA). With the good news, as I have seen most here, she did NOT check the box to request the SSN card once the EAD passed. The “not checking part on the initial form” I won’t get into, but regardless, our approach now obviously is to file with the SSA office and get it that way once the EAD arrives. With all that said, has anyone did it the same way and is there any different process you would apply in this situation other than going to the office like the DMV and applying? I am assuming an EAD, her previous form applied and her ID should be good enough to apply. Thanks in advance!
  5. Yea I’m going to try turbo. H/R didn’t let me so. Okay. Thanks for the reply and input !
  6. I have always done my own (using software tax methods), but right now, I am not able to since I can’t even start due to the SSN/ITIN feature of the spouse. I plan to use a tax personnel just to be safe/right.
  7. When did you guys get married? I’m assuming you were NOT allowed to file single due to the date or marriage? Since we married prior to 12/31/2021, I have no choice right now but to file MFS or MFJ (best option / tax refund).
  8. Okay will do. With all this, I am going to still seek a tax professional as I have always done taxes myself.
  9. Ohhh interesting. I hope you get it sooner than later! SSA is a tough place to get anything done even if done correctly on our end. We did everything right and was denied now due to my spouse K1 Visa expiring
  10. Wait, are you saying no need for an extension if I can “estimate” that I am going to be due a refund? I believe I will owe for state (most likely the case) and my federal will offset the owed which will equate to me receiving a refund. But, what I am saying is, I can’t even file at this point as married since my spouse doesn’t have a SSN at the moment and she will not receive one by the normal tax deadline (04/22). Wouldn’t I still need to request an extension since I will be late? Yes, I do not recommend the ITIN from the response we got from someone we know. Is your spouse’s SSN coming out before April is likely? What is your situation?
  11. Hello Everyone, I know my question has been asked many times, but there isn’t a clear answer. At the same time, I do have some information myself about ITIN without SSN for spouses here with a K-1 visa. I am trying to file taxes for the recent taxes due and I qualify to file as a married jointly since my marriage took place before the 12/31/2021. Unfortunately, even though we did everything on time to receive a SSN for my spouse, it failed (which is another story) due to SSA office not doing their part. Anyways, we consulted a couple we know also with a K-1 visa who filed requesting a ITIN which they have told us that it was not only a hassle, but major problems (Still haven’t received refunds from 2020 taxes along with verification process to obtain ITIN was insane). My desire is to request an extension, but I am hearing that it’s not an extension to put off any amounts due (if you were to file normally before the 04/15 deadline). Has anyone took this approach to use the extension method and if so, how do you go about paying “in advance” on the estimate that is due (most likely state owed taxes) while filing for an extension or am I wrong on this part? I’ve always filed online myself, and I am planning to see a tax professional, but I know they will push for the ITIN route which I am trying to avoid. TL:DR The wish is to file an extension, file when spouse receives her SSN prior to the 10/22 extension deadline and file normally without the hassle. Just worried about taxes due by the normal deadline when using the extension method.
