I-134 and the Vancouver Consulate

[joe_robin66 6]

So just when I think I have everything together, I read something else I may need. Was just reading a couple threads on here about the I-134 and tax returns/transcripts. I was just planning a copying my tax records and W-2s, would it be better to order the transcripts from the IRS and if so how long would it take generally? Does Vancouver generally ask for on over the other?

Thanks

As long as you include the 1040, all W2's, and all 1099s, I do not believe Vancouver has a strong preference. We did not order transcripts. We used photocopies of these tax forms and were approved at the K-1 interview without mention of the tax information.

My understanding is that when you order the transcript, they can be faxed to you almost immediately, or sent out in approximately one week. As I stated, Vancouver expressed no preference to me, and accepted and approved the application with the photocopied tax forms without any comment about the tax documentation.
