tax returns

[KatieMay 0]

Hi again everyone

I don't know if anyone felt as stupid as I do when trying to fill in all these forms - but I have yet another question

I have a close family friend filling in an I-864 form for support for me. They are self-employed (own several companies) in the construction industry and applied in 2007 for an extension on filing their taxes - which was granted. They are asked to include copies of 1 or 3 tax returns, they have '05 and '06 and the letter of extension from the IRS for '07 - is this going to be ok or will the Immigration people throw that back to us?

(the form says to file any late taxes before you submit the form - I assume they are not 'late' because they have been given permission to file on another date?)

Thanks xo

The first extention of a persons tax return is an automatic extention and does not require nor will they get specific IRS approval. Being self employed they will need 3 years. The extention of time is only until August 15, how close are they to having it done?

I would assume that if they are attaching a 'proof of Income' or employment letter, then the copy of the 2007 extension showing payments made should be sufficient. Good Luck

She said they have an approval from the IRS for the extension, so maybe they have gone past the 'first' stage.

Secondly, I don't know how or when they intend on filing it, basically I haven't asked but the impression I got was, not all that soon - the time sensitivity is on my part as I am hoping to send my application in before the end of this week or at the latest the start of next.

First stage for all calendar taxpayers for 2007 is August 15, 2008...
