[FaithfulandTrue 6]

i filed my tax with my mother as a dependent for the tax year 2007... with my SO in our household there will be 5 people.. my mother did not file a tax return.. she receives social security and i talked to irs and they said she didn't have to file.. on the form I864a it asks for on number 11 for tax information and it says in the instructions if you were required not to file, attach written explanation including evidence of the exemption and how you are qualified for it... so now what... can she just write a letter saying that she didn't have to file or does she have to fill this form out.. i make at least 125% of the poverty guideline for a family of 5... i just wanna make sure i'm doing this right.. thanks.. oneder

Is she retired or something like that? I'm not sure if there is some restrictions about the co-sponsor, at least in the form they don't mention any. So, I think that she'd be Ok writing an explanation letter about that exception. The worse thing would be to get a RFE asking for the income tax.

Good luck

yes she's 82 and i asked irs did she have to file and they said no.. so she hasn't filed, but my question is do i have to even do that if i make enough above the poverty line.. do i have to do a I864a if i make enough or can i just do the I864 and if they ask for more income do the I864a or will they allow me to even do the I864 over again.. thanks.. oneder
