I am trying to file Married-Filing-Jointly but my spouse has to apply for her ITIN (form W-7). I got a few questions to see if Turbotax supports these:
1. In the software, is it possible to put 0s in the SSN/ITIN or leave the box empty for spouse so that I can fill out the rest (that includes my W-2, 1099 DIV, INT etc), and then later print out the return? I need to physically mail the return this time because we need to submit the W-7 along with the return to IRS, Texas. Most other tools I searched don't support this on their software.
2. The same question for California state return, does the software allow putting 0s or empty box for spouse ITIN/SSN and print the return?
Thanks
Yes. TurboTax suggests you use 999-88-9999 to use the TurboTax program. This will allow you to calculate a federal and state return. If applying for an ITIN, you should "White-out" the space containing that number on the paper copy. Attach Form W-7 and send to the Austin Texas address or take to a Acceptance Agent or Certifying Acceptance Agent.
TurboTax also assists if you are making the election to file a joint return. Select the option in the Personal Info section of the return and a statement will be generated with your return.
