I amended my 2016 tax return to married filing jointly and the refund check is issued with both spouse name on it. But the problem is that my spouse live in overseas. When I went cash the check, my bank said that my spouse need to be present before I can cash the check. Also we don't have a jointly bank account. Please help me on that because my spouse can't has a visa to come to the USA right away, it can take him up to 18 months to get a visa. Thanks
