Affidavit of Support

[MikeA 0]

We will be submitting the I-129F in a week. I presume I will need my Affidavit of Support in about 5 or 6 months. My question is this. I did not work last year. I took 2 trips to the Philippines plus one trip this last Feb. to be with my fiancee. I will submit tax returns from the years prior plus I am starting to work now so I will be have adequate annual income to show for this year. Not having a tax return for last year? will that be a big negative for me?

Yes. You need to either provide a tax return or a reason you did not file one. You will also need to do this for the AOS. I would submit the explanation plus the previous years return (2007) plus your docuentation of current employment and income.

The reason I will provide for not working is that I took a sabbatical plus went to the Philippines 3 times. Which is why I did not work. Do you think this is an adequate reason? I hope, because it is the truth

Is it a bad thing if the consulate sees that the petitioner does not even know how to spell his future wife's name?

You have plenty of time to send another I-134 to your fiance. That's what I would do. No reason to take any chances. Good Luck. Mike

I included a cover letter with the I-134 explaining my finances and tax history.

You could do the same.

Mine was odd because until August 2008, I lived outside the US. Several years of my tax returns before 2008 show no US income. I explained this in the cover letter.

The IRS decides that. If you had no income, you do not need to file. If you had foreign income or even some income in the USA, you need to file, but maybe not pay tax. Not needing to pay tax and not needing to file are two very different things.

Well it isn't good. But they did allow us to make a correction on one of our forms at the interview...and NO, it wasn't her name! LOL
