hi everyone,

just a quick question for FEB 09 filers, has anyone received their NOA2 yet. myself and fiance are still waiting and i was just wondering if anyone else was in the same situation.

hope we hear soon,

Not to worry my friend. Approvals are alredy coming in and ours should be in the coming days. They are still working on the ones in the first half of Feb. Ours should be coming in very soon.

thanks for the reply, i hope they are on there way.

Thanks, guys. Am in a tricky position bc I lost my job last year (5-month layoff) then again 2 months ago, but found another job in 2 weeks...but it's only contract (for now, has potential to be full time), so I was REALLY worried about showing income. Am bringing last 3 year's taxes (even though Naples only calls for 1) just to show that I've had income over time.

The woman there said that even though my job is technically contract, and the employer letter says that, I can multiply out my day rate for my annual income on the I-134. So, bringing that, the one paystub I currently have (contractors are paid every 30 days) and then bank statements showing savings. I thought I'd have to show 5X the poverty line (= $18K X 5 = $90K!!!), because Naples requires 5X, but luckily she said contract income will do (whew!).

For the tax documents (other than W2s and 1099s) are you guys sending all the other accompanying docs? Like, worksheets, state tax forms, etc?

I am sending Tax *transcripts* for 2006, 2007, & 2008. You can request these from the IRS - just go to their website. These are official and contain all the pertinent facts from your 1040. And they are free I think. If not free, really cheap, but I don't remember paying anything. They arrived in my mailbox in only a few days, and I did not need to look for the files and make copies...point, click, check the mailbox...

There have been quite a few approvals from the first half of Feb (up to about Feb 12). None from the later half, but they should be starting to come over the next 1-4 weeks... You should not be worrying yet...

Yes, since my taxes are complicated, I am sending ALL schedules and worksheets. I don't think I am sending state taxes, since I don't think they are an issue...

You should be fine with Tax transcripts. The information is for proof of sufficient income, so you probably don't need to send all the schedules (let alone worksheets). Of course, it does not hurt.

i have asked this question b4 but cant remember the answer if my life depended on it, but I own roofing company so i dont really have a letter from employer, and all i have are my 2008 tax's are my personal and company's 1040... i should be good with that right?

If you are self-employed (own your own company), you need to provide *3* years of tax records. Technically if you are not self-employed you could likely get away with 1 year, but I am not going to chance it. Because it is about proving you can support your fiance/wife, you need to show that. I would suggest providing any evidence of net worth that would help show the ability to support (bank records, property ownership, etc).

I've been there a couple of times, but it was also either dead or completely off topic.
