My GF was employed even though she has a F1 Visa, should she file taxes?

My girlfriend was employed even though she was on a F1 student visa. She has a SSN but isn't supposed to work in the US. She quit working when she realized she wasn't supposed to be working. Should she file her W2's to get a tax return? She doesn't want to get in trouble for working or for not filing her w2's. We are planning on getting married soon. Any help would b greatly appreciated Thanx!

If she had an income in the US, yes, she's supposed to file. Depending on her income, she has to file. Working illegally while a student can definitely mess up her F status, but if you marry, and you file the I-130, the I-485, etc. it will have no impact on her ability to get an immigrant visa based on her marriage to you.

Bad news. She violated the terms of her student visa and needs to return home. If she does not file her income taxes, she is guilty of tax fraud, goes to prison and is deported and permanently barred from reentry. If she files, they find out she violated her visa, deport her, and she's barred from reentry. She blew it and she is in major trouble either way.

Marrying someone in this much trouble is a bad idea unless you are moving to her country.
