Deductions & credits

@GuyBoren , while agreeing with my colleague @SwapnaM ,  and like her I am wondering  about 

 

(a) what visa ,

(b) from which country

(c)  the reason given by  IRS for refusal of ITIN .

Generally  ITIN is  ONLY for the purposes of filing a tax return --  so if you are a Resident for Tax purposes ( having met the SPT), and wish to file Married Filing Joint then you definitely need the ITIN for your spouse .  Ditto for the children.  Therefore the need for more info.

 

I will circle back once I hear from you
