You learn something new every day

So last night, JF and I went to have our taxes done. It was at that point that we realized Jacob not having a Social Security Number was an issue. We needed one for him to file, but can't actually apply for one until we readopt him in MA. SO what to do???? Well, I learned that you can apply for a SSN for a child in the re-adoption process using this form here. I really wish I had known about this form before we tried to file our taxes, but our accountant says we will be fine. We will submit by paper and at first include no number, knowing it will get kicked back. This will buy us the time to get the number. Problem solved!!
