The work-around for this situation is to use "Dummy" SSN/ITIN for your
spouse. to prepare the return. You can use your own SSN/ITIN
with different last numbers.
Or use "305-44-0001, 0002, 0003 etc.", a dummy number
we use for training.
This should allow you to get through the Smart Checks and
Reviews and print your return for filing by mail. "Erase" or white-out the dummy SSN/ITIN and replace with
"Unknown".
