| Documenting Foreign Employer Income/Deductions My wife and I were married in 2001, but she remained a non-resident alien until this year. She is now a legal resident. We want to amend the 2001 and 2002 taxes to claim resident status for tax purposes, but that then requires that we include her income. All of her employers during this period are foreign and they have differ-ent reporting requirements to their national tax authority. What could we need to provide to the IRS (in case they ever ask) in order to document her income during this time? I tried the IRS website, but it wasn't any help. Thanks, Greg Marlowe << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |
