--- Ok I am confused.... If my wife makes 125% of the poverty line. Does she need to send the last 3 years of taxs. She files alone last year so her tax papers say 19,900 annual... She made over 125% for two ppl last year. But now we are married and i dont know if this well play a big factor on our visa. She makes 30,000 a year now. What do we do? So confused about all these support things.

Only the most recent tax year information is required, however, she has the option to send the last 3 years, if she feels those years will also help demonstrate her ability to meet guidelines. $19,900 annual does, as you said, meet the requirement for a household of two- if it's just you two, you should be fine with that. Make sure she includes an original letter from her employer stating her current salary. Read guides here, and she'll be fine.

Read question 19. "I have filed a Federal tax return for each of the three most recent tax years. I have attached the

required photocopy or transcript of my Federal tax return for only the most recent tax year. "

The petitioner must show that he/she filed for the last 3 years. only the last year tax papers photocopy or transcript is required. hope this clarifies the confusion.

You must provide either an IRS transcript or a photocopy from your own records of your Federal individual income tax return for the most recent tax year. If you believe additional returns may help you to establish your ability to maintains sufficient income, you may submit transcripts or photocopies of your Federal individual income tax returns for the three most recent years.

there are two issues here:

1. providing tax transcript for the last year
2. filing taxes for the last 3 years

the question is, can a person who has very high income for the last year (ex. 2007) not to file for the two previous years (ex. 2006, 2005)?
