Re: Tax forms

Whether or not he is behind in paying his taxes will have no impact on your application for change of status.

The INS looks for violent crimes and crimes that denote a 'depraved character'. Not filing your taxes ius a serious crime, but it does not indicate that either of you is a person who is fundamentally evil.

This is not something for you to worry about for your status.

However, this is something to woprry about for your financial future!
