Had never heard of that site. That's good!
I think in the end it depends on the individual and what that individual knows. thanks for sharing!

In other words, if this year is our first time filing, can we claim those previous years?
Thanks!

Sup! Yes you can claim those previous years even if you didn't file originally I will change that thanks for pointing it out!

I've dealt with clients that have ITINs and use a SSN to work and so far we have not heard of that causing audits. I highly doubt you'll have any problems so no worries. Just make sure that know that you have your own ssn to change it at work.
PS. You can claim EIC! If you did 2009 please make sure you amend it and if not then file the return for that year before tax season ends.
