Can I apply for a green card if my spouse hasn’t filed taxes?

Yes, you can still apply, but your case may face challenges if your spouse hasn’t filed required tax returns.

Your spouse, as the petitioner/sponsor, must submit Form I-864 (Affidavit of Support), which includes proof of income and tax returns.

If your spouse doesn't meet the income requirement, you can use a joint sponsor who does meet the financial criteria.

If your spouse hasn't filed taxes for valid reasons e.g., low income or no income, they must provide a written explanation and possibly IRS transcripts confirming no filing requirement.
