Is SSN a must for filing tax returns


Recommended Posts

I was in the US on H1B Visa and had received US paycheck for about 2months. I had applied for SSN and in the meantime I had to travel back to India on emergency. I did not receive my SSN card during my stay in US. Now, when I called the SS office, they said SSN has been assigned to me but I need to personally go to an SS office to get the SSN.

 

I need my SSN to fill in the W-2 form and file my tax returns. Please suggest if there is a way to get my SSN# while I am in India?
