Does anyone have a tax exclusion format/letter according to plublication 17?

[MumtazG38 1]

In late feb I remember posting in one of my first ever threads that since I was a student and hadn't worked the passed 3 tax years and am a dependent in my parents taxes could I write a letter or something to the nvc with my aos packet that would explain everything so that they would be okay with my not sending any tax papers since i had none...and I got a reply from another user here, "trinket" to be exact and they had a format pertaining to the exact thing I was in need of...I downloaded it immediately.....but have long lost it, along with my laptops hard drive! I asked trinket whether they still had that format/letter and unfortunately since they have been done with immigration for 6 months now....they didn't.

I was hoping.....desperately that maybe someone else may still have a format/letter like that that I could use to send to nvc to explain why I dont/didnt need to file taxes for 2006-2008 that corresponds to the publication 17 for those years?

Any chance anyone might still have a remnant of that sort of format or letter so that I could at least have a head start in writing one myself?

The only issue is that I just dont know what to include in the format/letter......or how to even start writing it.....this is why I need someone from VJ to please help me to figure out what to put in, and how to write the letter to nvc about my reasons for tax exclusion.

I would be really really grateful to anyone who can help me out!!!!!!

Thank you!

I'm still in Canada right now, but I have a letter & pdf publications from the IRS proving why my husband didn't have to file (was a student) back home in the U.S. If you still need it, I'll be there in less than a week, just message me!

Slightly different situation, as my USC husband didn't file taxes as he lived with my in Ireland for almost 4 years and was unemployed during that time. He wrote the following:

To Whom It May Concern:

I am Mr Penguin, Penguin's husband and petitioning sponsor. I did not file an income tax return for the years 2005, 2006 or 2007 because I have not worked during my 3 year residence within the Republic of Ireland. Once I came to Ireland, I was unable to find work and so used savings; I was maintained by my wife upon her income and savings. Since I made no income for these years of any type, I was not required to file an income tax return with the Internal Revenue Service.

Sincerely, Mr Penguin.

DOn't worry about it so muh. I think you already got the file. But it's just like adding something in your cover letter. Cite the item # you are adding an explanation to (this would be in reference to the AOS form) and make your expalanation. We attached a separate sheet called "Re: Notes" to our cover letter to explain or reply in full to specific items in the forms.

As for tax exemption. If you can cite a valid reason, it won't be an issue. My husband isn't required to file income tax. We just produced an official letter about that and they never asked anything about it. We got our interview too and passed it! No questions asked!

Ok, we are in the same boat here.My husband came in Romania in 2004 and he lived with me here until March 2009.He did not have a job while living here, we lived off his savings and my money.He also did not file any taxes for those years, so my questions is how will he be filing form I-864.I also see here the explanation letter we can include , other people did it,my husband is asking what he should put exactly on section 25 ,any other suggestions?Thanks
