Question on Joint tax returns and AOS interview

[marlboro]

Has any one had any difficulty at the AOS interview because they lack joint tax returns even though they have been married for a while? My spouse has always filed alone because i do not have a ssn and we did not know about the itin until recently.We have been married for 3 years.

I didn't. At the moment of the interview I was married to my spouse for almost 2 years, and he also filed taxes as single ( I didn't have my SSN, and when I got it, I never worked anyways). Had no problems whatsoever. Just bring bunch of other evidence. And good luck!

filing taxes jointly would have helped you a bit, but it is not a negating factor. Try compensating that with evidence like joint bank accounts, joint lease/mortgage, joint utility bills, joint ownership of assets....
