certified tax returns for embassy in ALBANIA

[emmaline_g 2]

I can't find the answer through search.

I am trying to get my tax returns for my fiance's interview in Tirana, Albania. However a certified tax return costs $57 for one year so I don't want to get more than necessary.

How many years' tax returns do I need please? Does anyone know? Thanks

Usually just the plain old free tax transcripts are fine. You can also get these from the IRS.

Do you have something which specifically asks for certified tax returns?

3 years is a nice safe number. 2008 is required.

Yes the Packet 3 for Albania specifies certified tax returns.

Well I guess I will stop eating for the next couple months

Anyone have any experience with the embassy in Tirana? would be appreciated

I think they want the certified from the IRS. You can call the IRS and they will send them to you......That is the only certified I know. And I think it would be for the last 3 years.....so 2009,2008 & 2007. There is no charge from t he IRS

We just provided copies of our returns and they were fine in Albania with that. I stressed over it too as the certified copies took too long to get here, but they never said anything.

I'm a little late in responding. We used tax 'transcripts' as well. They are free and a faxed the request. The IRS sent them quickly. Go to: www.irs.gov
