Usually file through an accountant, but this year I made so little I decided to file my own using one of the 'Free' services promoted by the IRS.
Done it multiple times now, using several services, and keep running into issues. They don't take my foreign address, phone number etc. But got to the point of filing on one and it wants my Wife's SSN, or ITIN.
Here's the question: When I checked to see how my Wife was listed last year, he had me listed as 'Single', and avoided the issue altogether. Is that allowed. I can save a lot of paperwork that way if I can.
