What do you mean by "all my tax returns?"  Do you mean for more than one tax year?   Provide more details so we understand the issue.

Who used the wrong SSN?   You?   Or your employer on your W-2's?  Or both of you?   How did you figure out you were using the wrong one?

To follow up xmasbaby0's sensible questions, did you e-file in each of those years? If so, how, because the IRS would match your SSN to your name in the process of accepting your e-file.

 

Did your name and your SSN on your return match your SS card?

 

Or did you mail those returns and did the IRS write you a letter back, asking who you were?
