Before I decide about filing
Questions for an immigration attorney or DOJ accredited representative
- Does my history (a past deportation order, an arrest, an open case) change my risk?
- How could filing, or not filing, affect a future case for me or my family?
- Is there anything new in the IRS and ICE court cases since October 21, 2026?
Questions for a free tax helper (VITA)
- Do I have to file this year?
- Do I need a new or renewed ITIN?
- Which California credits can my family claim?
- What penalty would I owe if I file late?
Bring: ITIN letter, ID, income papers (W 2, 1099, your own records of cash pay), last year's return if you have one.
My decision and why: ______________________________
