Hello, I have a question hope somebody can help me out. My wife and I got married April of 2009(Here in the US), she was an illegal immigrant and did not work in 2009 . In December I filed her immigration paperwork, this month (feb 2010) she received her work permit, we then filed to get her a social security card, she has received it already. My question is can I file a married filing jointly return for 2009 with her new social security even though she received it this year. I hope I am making sense and hope someone can help me out.
Thanks,
Art
