Questions on I-864 EZ.
We have decided to apply for my GC based on my spouse's income alone.So we are using the form I-864 EZ. We have some questions -
We are planning to apply for GC in March and we will not be able to file the 2009 tax returns by that time.
1) For Item 19, what should be the most recent tax year?
2) Will it be a problem not sending in the 2009 Tax return? Is a letter necessary explaining on why 2009 taxes are not filed yet?
3) Since we file jointly, how do we calculate the AGI for the sponsor only? Should we just add the income of the spouse's W2's? My spouse has a regular job and in addition is self employed. So for the 1099 MISC, to report the AGI, should we substract the liabiliites?
4) Item 18 - The total Income - Should that be AGI or the total income?
5) Item 16 - Should the spouse number be 0 because it is already counted in the field above it ('Yourself and the person you are sponsoring on this form.')
