Do you (and your spouse, if filing jointly) have a social security number?

You (and your spouse, if filing jointly) must each have a valid social security number issued by the Social Security Administration. Any qualifying child listed on Schedule EIC must also have a valid SSN. You cannot claim the EIC if you (or your spouse, if filing jointly) have a social security card that says "not valid for employment" and the number was issued so that the cardholder could receive a federally funded benefit, such as Medicaid. If you fail to provide a social security number for yourself (and your spouse, if filing jointly), the EIC will not be allowed.

谢谢班主，就是不知道能否借此申请ssn.也不知道能否填head of household，实在需要拿笔钱，想全家回趟国。

我理解的意思是，你们不能claim EIC的。你看下你lg的ssn card，上面有没有"not valid for employment'的字样？

mm，我又大概看了一下具体条文，这个是给公民和R用的。f1大于5年是可以算R的。

要是mm实在想claim的话，又不确定，可以打电话给irs或者去local office咨询一下。要不就等其他知道的更具体的筒子们来回答一下。

还有，现在申请ssn是要拿到job offer或者有EAD的，f2申请不了。
