Tax Transcript for Affidavit of Support

Registered Users (C)
I have called the IRS requesting tax transcript and received something yesterday. But I am not sure this is the one. Can anyone please verify this is indeed the transcript? I need this for the Affidavit of support.

The paper they sent was printed on white paper without any title like IRS. No seal, no stamp. Only listing SSN, and the details of tax return like gross income, #of exemptions, etc.

Is this the official transcript? Or am I missing something? I did ask for tax transcript or should I ask for photocopy of tax return for the Affidavit of support? Thanks.
 
What number did you call to get the transcripts? How many years did you request the transcripts for? Was there a cost associated with it?
 
Please ignore my previous post. In case if anyone else needs this info, Transcripts Request may be made by calling 1-800-829-1040. IRS do not charge a fee for transcripts. You need to allow two weeks for delivery.

That's what I got as well.
And that's all you need, no photocopies are needed.
 
That is what the tax transcript looks like. The detailed line items printed are in itself the verification of the document.
 
Thanks for the replies. I am still puzzled. Because yesterday we received the transcript for my husband. It's in a totally different format. To make it visual for you to understand the difference, I write below how both look like with fake data.

The questions is whether both are indeed the official Tax Return transcript although in different formats. My doenst' even with my full name on it, only my SSN and last name. I notied that my husband's was from INS Memphis, TN. Mine was sent from IRS Richmond, VA. Does that mean they use different format at differnet IRS location? Would both be accepted by INS for Affidavit of Support?

Thanks for any advice.
