Hello,

i would like to file the injured spouse allocation form but I don’t have W2 form or W2g form. Can I still file and send without those forms. 
thanks.

See this form to determine if you can be an injured spouse.

Hi, 

thank you for your response. 

I juste would Like  to know what I have to include as a document with my 8379 form. 
Since we don’t have W2’s while living outside the US. thanks

If filing the form after you filed your return attach a copy of your return and any W-2 or 1099 forms or Schedule C forms that you have.

You should attach any other proof of income that will help the IRS evaluate your case.  

The IRS says 

"If you file Form 8379 separately, please be sure to attach a copy of all Forms W-2 and W-2G for both spouses, and any Forms 1099 showing federal income tax withholding, to Form 8379. The processing of Form 8379 may be delayed if these forms are not attached, if the form is incomplete when filed, or if you attach a copy of your previously filed joint return."

If you live overseas, I would include whatever documents you have proving your portion of the shared income you reported on your joint tax return.  You should also attach copies of any tax payments you made (assuming you didn't have withholding).
