Help regarding Filling Up W-7 form

[uverma]

Me and my wife were in USA since Oct'2012 and returned on Oct'2014. My status was L1-B (exp. feb-2013 but I-94 was valid till Oct-2015) and my wife was on L2 (same expiry and i-94 dates). I need to file an ITIN for my wife so have some queries on the W-7 form -

Question 1.
Which of the options should I select in response to "Reason you are submitting Form W-7"
d) Dependent of U.S. citizen/resident alien
e) Spouse of U.S. citizen/resident alien
g) Dependent/spouse of a nonresident alien holding a U.S. visa

I suspect g will be the correct option but I heard from someone that the IRS purview of a resident alien is different from someone's Visa status.

Question 2.
Line 1b. Enter your name as it appears on your birth certificate if it is different from your entry on line 1a.
My wife's birth name had only one name (given name only) without any surname which was also replicated in the passport. After coming back from US she got a new passport with surname added. So, should I write the given name only in 1b or does it apply only if given name is changed?

Question 3.
As we are filing it from India should I fill the Applicant's mailing address and leave foreign address blank or fill Foreign address leaving the mailing address blank.

[inadmissible]

1) e, since you meet the Substantial Presence Test and will be filing form 1040/1040EZ/1040A instead of 1040NR.
2) birth name
3) Put the same address on both lines

No response - 8 weeks & counting

ITIN for my family:

I had submitted W7 initially on 13-Mar, received query and sent original passports on 8-May. I haven't heard anything for last 7 weeks. I called up last week and they said they don't know if since system has not updated.

Please share your experience, is this common or isolated case?
