The form includes a space for the signature of the spouse. It would be best to sign it.

This would be especially important if you are claimed as a dependent and the filing was a "joint return".

Chizza,

I'm not sure that the Authorization for release of Federal Tax Data is actually needed. When I received my AOS packet from NVC, the Authorization for release of Federal Tax Data form was not included. I did not send it, and my AOS was approved without any issue.

Of course, it depends upon whether you are using James' shortcuts or instead if you have plenty of time and are in no particular hurry you could just wait to see what they send you as the list of requirements (which may be specific to your Embassy).

If using James' shortcuts it is best to follow instructions.
