I filed DCF and had my interview last week. Seems like everything is OK except for the i-864. I was told that my USC wife (sponsor) should attach her tax return for the past 3 years. Basically I don't know how to get this. During the interview, I attached her statement saying that she does not need to file tax because she make her income a foreign country and pay tax to a foreign government.

My USC wife holds Singapore Permanent Residency. She has been living here in Singapore for more than 5 years. She started working full time since March 08, previously she was in school. She paid her tax to the Singapore government and filed her tax return here too.

I have tried to e-file for her but so far unsuccessful, I believe because the previous adjusted gross income is not matching with the previous year return.

Although her income is above 125% of poverty line, i believe her income is not counted toward my sponsorship since she works for a local company and her employment will not continue after we move to the US.

I also have a co-sponsor, her uncle in Houston. I was told I need to provide additional documents. Letter from his employer confirming his employment, including dates of employment and salary; income tax returns for 2007 and 2006; most recent bank statement and a letter explaining why he is willing to fully support me after my arrival in the US.

I was told I can comeback once I have these documents.
