I haven't started yet, but just starting to get all my paper work together. What's the common? I was thinking of getting an IRS tax return transcript. Has anyone done this? And how fast can I get this?

Didn´t you already send that with the AOS paperwork? If you are talking about for your interview, I think they mean more to do with your relationship--pictures, e-mails/letters/cards, plane tickets from visits, affadavits from family, etc.

The USCIS checklist gives you three options.. you can freely choose one of the three. We chose to send the transcripts since they were easy to get.

One should remember that there is really no burden of proof at this stage... They just want something basic to show you're still in marital union, transcripts showing joint filing show this. After calling the IRS toll free number, we got the transcrpipts within a week.

Yes but that is for US Spouse proving that can support immigrant. In this case they are looking to see joint filing of taxes, a requirement of citizenship, if being applied for within 3 years.

Thanks zyggy. I was looking at the application and I came across a question that I think might deter us from applying.....

I started another topic, but anyway, the question asked if you owe any federal/state/local tax that's overdue... and we do. We didn't pay for the property tax for one of our investment homes because it was going into foreclosure anyway. What do you think? Should we bother applying at this point? What do you think our options are? Pay for the property tax, then apply for citizenship? ****SIIIGHHHHHH**

I know, i just read it. Thank you again! You're extremely helpful. Or I'm just plain stupid for not doing the research myself =(

Ok, time to make lunch for my kiddies! Talk to you later. But thank you so much again for answering all my questions. I'm sure I'll be back again with more questions! =)
