This really should be a cautionary tale of danger letting other person run your life and being so fully dependent on someone, especially someone shady and secretive. |

This is what H&R Block, which is a fairly authoritative source, says about it: Married Filing Separately might benefit you if you have to use the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) on a joint return (Only true if only one spouse is liable on a separate return) because the spouse with the lower income can qualify for tax deductions only by filing a separate return. None of these circumstances applied to Jesyka and her husband. |

On paper returns (those I still remember), yes, both spouses must sign. |

Now is really the time to find out what has been going on. Jesyka does not need the husband's signature to find out. This is what the IRS website says: Copies of jointly filed tax returns may be furnished to either spouse. Only one signature is required. Sign Form 4506 exactly as your name appeared on the original return. And this is the form: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf @jesyka do you know your husband's social security number? On line 5 of the form, I suggest you put someone else's address so that your husband would not interfere with your mail. Do you have someone who can receive the mail from the IRS for you, give you the mailings, and not tell your husband? |

Please do. Request copies of tax returns as far back as possible. You need to start learning what has been going on. I hope you know your husband's social.

Unfortunately, no, not without his social security number. You need that. It is required on the form (I posted the link to the form earlier in this thread). Usually, spouses know each other's SSN. He clearly knows yours and uses it on the returns he files with the IRS. It is a problem if you do not know his number.
Maybe other posters have ideas how you can learn his SSN. There was a law passed some years ago which requires truncation of SSNs on forms that get mailed. So even if you look around in his mail, say from the social security administration, you won't see the entire 9 digit number. I am out of ideas. |

Where are your SS cards? Go look for the actual card? In document files or where do you keep documents? Honestly I don’t remember my husband’s SS number. Every time we needed each other SS for something we just ask each other or if the person isn’t available go look in a document files.

Jesyka, I wonder if he’s filing as “married filing separately” and since you don’t work you just never file? Do you have any proof that he files “jointly”?
