non-resident alien spouse

kmitchell5 — Sat, 05 Apr 2025 15:45:34 GMT

I'm married filing separately. My spouse is a non-resident alien and he does not have a SSN or an ITIN. We both live abroad. I have completed my taxes but cannot file or print because the system won't let me move past this missing field. All the advise from previous questions is to print the tax filing completed on TurboTax and mail it in but when I click into the Print Center I get redirected to fill in this missing data. How can I print my tax return without this information?

You can print a copy of the tax return by choosing the Print Preview copy from the Print menu.

This is where it sends me back to fill in the missing information. I click on the print preview page, a new page comes up asking me to pay and I click to pay, then it takes me back to filling in the missing information

Try entering a "dummy" number in the SSN field for your spouse (try something like 999-88-9999) but leave the box checked indicating that your spouse is a nonresident alien.

You will still get an error about the need for a Social Security number, but it should let you continue without looping you back to the entry area.
