I have not worked and therefore, as my income was zero I am not required to file a tax return for this period.

A short letter from the USC explaining the lack of returns should be enough, with a reason. Here is what my husband wrote- this was accepted no problem:

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.

Thankyou,Penguin----I have not worked at all the last 6 years,but have received interest on savings,which counts as income. Luckily(for thispurpose),I only have been getting very little interest earnings---2 to 3 %...during these bad times....and yearly has been no more than 7000$. I guess I will write a very simple letter saying that.. Thanks agn...

I would also add the exemption from IRS. Check out their website for the exact citation for the years you were not required to file taxes.

Hi,do you know, if the letter of explanation of not filling income taxes needs to be notarized?

[Penguin_ie 5,993]

We didn't notarise it, the USC just signed it.
