Need help with this- I will be going for my N-400 interview in Atlanta in April. Wife decided to file Married filing separate after my several objections because she felt we can get more refunds back. Can I run into problem with the IO during my interview. I filed the 3yr rule and the past 3 yrs, we have filed jointly until this 2012.
Any suggestion or advise ?
 
Shouldn't be a problem since you are still filing as married. If you have a tax benefit filing as "Married Filing Separate" then you cannot be penalized for it. If asked you can always offer the tax benefit as the reason.
 
Thanks nkm,
Have you read any thread with this same situation that got approved without this causing problem at the interview ? As a matter of fact, the past 3 yrs, we filed jointly but I know they will be asking for the past 3 yrs tax papers and that will include the 2012 which she just filed separate.
