    Husband TN visa, Wife non-resident alien (Canadian)
    Hello,

    I am on an TN visa and my wife is is a non resident alien who lives in canada but travel with me in the US quite often.
    I would like to know how should I declare my taxes since my wife does not have a US SSN or ITIN number.
    Should I get my wife a ITIN number or SSN before submitting my taxes.

    It is likely that filing jointly is the best option tax-wise.

    When you file, you must apply for an ITIN for her WITH the tax return. Any application prior to the submission of the tax return will likely be rejected.

    I can help you file this return; it IS what I do!

    If you need professional help filing your return, email me at [email protected] or [email protected].
