Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You don't need your children's social security cars to file taxes, only the numbers.  If you don't have them handy you can look on older tax returns to get them from there.  You can also contact the social security administration  at ssa.gov to see if they can help.  But there is no requirement that you claim all of the deductions that you are entitled to on your return, so you can leave the children off and file without them if you have to.
