She(being told now after 6yrs of doing their joint taxes) has always had a social security card/number.  Has always worked at the same job in NYS as her husband also kept his same employment.  They have been married for 14 years and have a little girl ( that also had a social security card) but found out NOW is a dual citizen.   The Mother is  ( as I am told now) a Canadian Citizen BUT with permanent residency in USA.  Though she moved back to Canada in mid-August, taking her daughter and planning on divorcing her husband.

She worked, as she normally always did, until mid-August at her regular employment in USA.  Then one day took her daughter and moved back to Canada.   She has income from NYS from January - August   and now also has income from August- December from Canada.
