tax return needed or not?

[Gary and Alla 3,694]

Hello All:

I am going to our interview August 7 with my faincee in Kiev.

I am an employee, I have a verification letter from my employer, recent check stubs and a verification letter from my bank. All the information on these documents easily exceeds the poverty guidelines. Do I need to provide last years income tax return at all? I get confused when it says ..."IF self-employed" previous years tax return.

Thanks. Any info specific to Kiev would be appreciated

The form itself says to submit the following:

B. Statement of your employer on business stationery, revealing:

1. Date and nature of employment;

2. Salary paid

I remember going over this trying to figure out how come people tell you to submit 3 years worth of income taxes. I decided to submit mine just in case. Maybe overkill, but I prefer to err on the safe side and it's not difficult at all to get the returns for the last 3 years.

They only require the most recent years tax return. Best to have the last 3 years tho. Probably will need such when she adjust status when she gets to the US.

Tax transcripts are the best. I just got the last 3 years from IRS and it only took about 6 days via snail mail. Call 1-800 829- 1040 24/7. If you're in a hurry they will also fax them to you.

I have been visiting the Kiev embassy about once a week for the last month. What they want for the financial support docs is I-134, 2007 tax return and 2007 W-2. If you have any questions about Kiev embassy ask away since I am staying here with my wife and her interview will be Sep 2nd.
