Q. U.S. citizen filing jointly with spouse but my wife doesn't have an SSN at the moment, will that be acceptable?
A: You can apply for an ITIN for your spouse by filing out a W-7 application. It is best to work with a professional when filing out the W-7 application. If the form is not prepared correctly, you can be rejected and will have to start the process over again. Please do not send your wife's passport by mail. There are other ways to process the W-7 application timely. I worked as the managing attorney of the tax department at an immigration firm for several years in New York City.
Q. I am a senior citizen on a fixed income. Yesterday I received 3 notices from the nys tax people. It seems they have gone
A: You can contact New York state to conduct a compliane check. If you do owe the taxes, you may qualify to file an offer in compromise to settle your tax debt.
Q. I owe TN over $200k for past sales tax returns. What are their options they may perform to collect if I live in MS.
A: You can submit an offer in compromise application with Tennessee Department of Revenue. Offer in compromise allows a settlement on your tax debt, if you can show your expenses are more than your income. You may be able to save alot of money in taxes. I hope this information helps you.
