Hi, I am on j1 visa, first time I file a tax return , I am married and have 2 kids, my wife and one child have ssn, but my other child doesn't so I field my tax return and sent a w7 along with it, do I still have to send a w7with a notarized passport copy to austin Texas?

It depends on your home country.

WHAT is your home country?

Sorry, but you CANNOT claim either your children or your wife on your non-resident return.

Claiming of dependents on the non-resident return is restricted to residents of Canada, Mexico, India and South Korea.
