I didnt qualify because of a SS# error..?

Question

apparently I didn't change my name on my SS card when I got married (that was 8 years ago and I've been filing taxes with no problem since then).

If I fix this, will I still get a refund?

Answer 1

I don't know.  Since there was a mismatch between your name and SSN, that may cause it to be counted as an invalid SSN number and no check...

Worst case, fix your records and do the 2nd chance worksheet on the 2008 tax return.

Answer 2

First get it changed on your SS card. Go to nearby Social security Administration office.
