Hello,
I have already previously filed Married filing Separately, which already got approved. Just to make sure I'm prepared before moving forward with amending my return and filing Married filing Jointly.
I recently got back from the Philippines in July. My wife and I, filled out Form W-7 and she signed the form.
One month prior, she got a Certified Copy Of Passport.
Does it sound like I have everything in order?...
- Amend 2024 tax return
- Form w-7 signed by my wife
- and certified copy of passport (my wife's) - this does not require any other supportive documents
(Reminder: My wife is a Filipino citizen and has never been to the United States. I want to make sure I qualify to file on behalf of my wife)
Am I correct? I checked the boxes for Nonresident Alien and Treat my wife as US resident for the entire tax year (even though we got married November 2024).
I put a fake SSN for wife, I know I need to apply white out so I can write something in this box. What is it?
My wife's employer does not provide pay stubs, annual statement of wages, 1099, and does not have employer identification number. Also, my wife gets paid in cash.
How and Where do I report my wife's wages on TurboTax??? Am I correct to put the wages amount under Miscellaneous Income ---> Other Income to Report?
Thank you, Alan
