Hello All,
Background -
Getting ready to file for 485 with 864, medical and EAD (130 was somehow miraculously approved two months back and wife will be a citizen in a couple of days). I'm myself currently on a H1
Question -
We're currently filling on the 864 affidavit of support along with my income through 864A. The form asks for our Federal tax returns for the last 3 years. I'm wondering if by federal tax return they mean the copies of the IRS forms (1040) we filled out ? If so then for the couple of years before, for which we dont have the tax return papers , do I need an IRS tax return copy or will an IRS tax transcript do ?
The reason I ask is that when my wife went for her citizenship interview, we ordered the last 5 years' transcripts. Hence if transcripts do then I just have to get mine over the phone and we are done for the tax returns part of it.
What are your experiences and opinions ?
Thanks in advance.
