what was your reason for expedite when you called or chatted them?

it won’t affect your normal application.

send them a response letter to the mailing address

if you dont have proof, then whats ut emergency?

@favor me👩🏽‍💼 here is story, I am an international student my wife is citizen filing for me, I don’t have a ssn and we filed for ead but still did not receive, she wants to file tax but they keep saying she need my ssn if filing married ( separately/ jointly). so I decided to call the office ask them what shall I do and the agent suggested me to expedite and I said ok and he submitted. yesterday and today I received receipt saying I need to fax proof

@n zay even if I don’t give them proof do you think I could receive the ead with normal timeline , I don’t have no proof I can proved

@S Caves wifey need to file taxes and I don’t have ssn

@🖕 USCIS saying what to them I need help ?

@Alassane Bamba if you don’t have ssn then your partner needs to select *married filing separately” in the space for your ssn, she would need to type 9999999. if she’s using filing services like 1040.com, she can chat with their support and they will most probably tell her the same.

as per your application, did they send a reason/proof of why you need your application expedited?

@Vic Thoms this is what they sent me

You can apply for a ITIN number from IRS. it’s for people who don’t have a ssn and need to file taxes.

i didn’t work so don’t have tax to file, can I still apply ? and what’s the website to apply from ?

@Abby thanks for response

if you don’t have any prove ,write a letter explain the decision then fax it

first of all if you can’t give them proof for the expedite only the expedite will be denied. your applications will process normally they won’t be affected. secondly even i just last month applied for an itin to file taxes with my spouse because I don’t have an ssn and ead yet. to do this you have to file the w7 form and your spouse will be doing paper filing. w7 is used to request the irs for an itin when you don’t have an ssn. you cannot file taxes online when you request itin.
