another question on tax transcripts

[tweety 1]

Hi,

I have finally received my tax transcripts from the IRS. For one tax year we filed an amendment to the tax return, which is not reflected in the transcript.... Will this be a problem with USCIS? Should I just write a short explanation along with it or add the amended return on top?

I'm sure they will really only need to see that we filed jointly...

Also: did you send them the whole tax transcript or just the cover page which shows joint filing?

Thanks.

Tweety,

As far as I know, the main purpose for the transcripts is to prove that you filed jointly, as you said. I would recommend sending the entire transcript, though - not sure cover page will do it.... We'll send the entire thing. I'm not sure how I'd handle the amended return issue, though. Writing an explanation might be the best idea.

Best of luck!

You can get an account transcripts with the amended tax info. Call the IRS and tell them that you amended your tax return for that specific year and that the additional info aren't captured in the transcripts you received. This happened to me and I was able to get a new transcripts with the amended tax info. Best of luck

I thought I've made this clear the first time I called, specifically asking for tax acct. transcripts. They still send the wrong ones....

I don't want to have to wait another 2 weeks...

Oh yeah - I forgot about that. Also, if you call them on the phone, they can often fax it to you within a day or two. I got some of my transcripts that way. Beats checking the mail box every day!
