Hi
I got married last year and I am a resident alien for tax purposes. For 2016, I prepared for jointly filing with my wife.
Due to some personal delays, I filed for an extension for Federal taxes earlier this year.
Very recently, I filed for my Federal taxes along with W7 form to obtain my wife's ITIN because she does not have a SSN.
We are still waiting for ITIN to arrive and it may take another 5-6 weeks. My query is regarding the state taxes.
I live in Massachusetts and do not owe anything to state tax and expect a return from the state.
Now, my question is that can I file my MA tax with a copy of W7 form that I used for Federal Taxes or should I wait for her ITIN to arrive in order to file MA taxes.
Thank you for help
