For those who had recent Interview

[Mr.&Mrs.A 0]

I know most interviews only last about 5+ minutes. When the pre-screener & CO look at IRS returns did they carefully examine each page or do they just look at line 22 of your 1040 form. My reason for asking is my tax returns are at least 15 pages long and don't want to unnessarily drag out the interview. Anyone who has been through the interview recently, your input would be appreciated.

They may or may not. As far as I know , they already know your documents even before you show it to them.

It really depends on the CO. But like what calico1 said, they pre-screen beforehand.

As a general rule - better to send too much than too little.
