Have 2 dependents(H4 visa) but no SSN.What to do?
Hi,
I am on H1B since Jan 2004, worked (the whole of last year 2006 )and continuing the work here. My wife and 3 yr old child got H4 visa in India and travelled and have started to live with me here from July2006 till date. She can't have SSN.. and when I go to claim them as Dependents, the software asks their SSN numbers. What is the way out? What should be my filing status.. How can I claim them as dependents to get some benefits?
The previous tax returns I used t file as "single with no dependents"... but now they are here in US. WHat should I be doing? Some guidance please from senior members who have gone theu similar phases... Thanks in Advance----osathire
