Hi, My husband and I have our interview on Nov 2 at the Atlanta office, I am a USC and he is from the U.K. We have been married for seven years.This is our second time filing for AOS due to the first time they requested additional information at the first interview that we were to mail to them but we mailed the wrong paper and got a letter that my husband had to leave the country so we had to get a lawyer and refile everything.

Well this is our second interview and I am getting all of our paperwork together to take with us and noticed that I am missing 2 of my W-2 's. I have all of my husbands but not mine. I have everything else except for those. We have always filed together.

So my question is: Is it going to be a problem that I don't have w-2's for those 2 years. I worked and we did file taxes together.

Thank you,

get them if you can

it shouldn't be that difficult to get

every employer keeps records of that sort for a certain period of time I think 7 years.

even a copy will be sufficient.
 
Erin get your w2 copies form our employer
Alternatively you can request IRS to give you copies of your tax returns for previous years - go to their website www.irs.gov - this would clearly show your income and income taxes
 
You can also request copies of the tax returns from IRS (they send you also copies of your W2's) by filling the following application:

http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf

My husband dindt have his Tax Returns for 2001 and 2002. And this how we obtained a copy of his TR. The fee is $39 per requested copy. It took like a month and a half untill we received the copies in the mail

Good luck
 
The copies of your tax teruns won't help. You may need to contact your employer(s) for those W2s.

Yap, an employer should be able to provide you with W-2's if you need only that. A friend of mine just got copies of her W2s for previous years since she didn't keep any. But copies oftax returs can be obtained only from IRS unless you made use of third party -preparer, in this case they have the copies in file
 
While we are on the topic...
I was able to obtain the tax transcripts much faster.. about a week at most. They are not copies of the tax returns but mere transcripts with names of filers, ss#s, and main information as AGI, deduction, tax due etc.

edited: oh, I forgot to add... it was free of charge for the past 3 years.

GeorgeF: How did you get these for free? could you please tell us the procedure?

Thanks,

I called the main IRS number and asked for Tax Transcripts. Now this was back in February so it could have changed since then.

I think INS only ask for the last 3 w2s!For the past three years...You will be fine if you have them.
 
Thank you all for your replys, I lucked up and found one of the two w-2's I am missing so now it is just one.
I will be getting that one from my employer.


Thank you all so much.

That was easy. I did the same. It was all automated. Hopefully they will arrive in two weeks.

Thanks GeorgeF again.
