I got married a year ago and about 4 months ago got my new SSN and GC.
I have been working for the same company for about 3 yrs, with a fake SSN (I know how bad it is, and how damaging it is). But trust me it was not my idea to do it this way...necessity drove me to do this. I have been filling taxes with my ITIN number, and did so last year when my husband and I Filed taxes together
Since then I have gotten my GC and SSN, I wanna update information with my employer (a very nice lady who I have formed a bond after working with her for 3 yrs). I know I have to come clean and tell her the truth, so that my correct SSN appears on my W2 when time comes to file taxes.
My question is will it be in my benefit to claim those taxes from previous years so that they can be applied to me and my new SSN? Also is my employer going to be affected by this? Like penalties and things like that? I really don't want my boss to get in trouble.
I'm a bit confused as to what forms I have to file or what is the process...
Help?
