RFE for I-864, 1040s needed

[Emmamama 2]

I need help with one of my 3 RFEs.

Received official emails, I understand 2 of them.

Third one is this (as listed on checklist):

Supporting Documents missing or incomplete

[x]The listed income tax documents/IRS statements for the years marked below are missing/incomplete (if you have lost any of the requested tax information, contact your local IRS office to obtain a copy)(Only federal returns (not state or local) are acceptable unless the sponsor's income was earned in Puerto Rico.)

·Federal income tax returns or literal printouts from IRS (RTFTP) or a Letter 1722 issued by the IRS are missing/incomplete for the year(s): [X]2008

[x]You have not enclosed an explanation of why you were not required to file income taxes under Federal Tax laws for any/all of the 3 most recent tax years.

I have the packet in hand and see that he included:

-1040 for 2008

-W2 for 2008

-Self Employment Schedule SE

What could be the problem?

Maybe there is a specific page left out or something?

For the firs part on the checklist?

For the second part it says that he hasn't included a statment as to why he was not required to file...

But he included his 1040, etc. and listed his income for the past 3 years.

One thing that I can think of is that he filed jointly with my grandmother (co sponsor his my grandfather) and wrote HIS individual income and not what is listed on TOTAL INCOME?

Help!

Help!

Did you (the petitioner) have an income for last three years? If so, did you file for taxes. If not, you need to attach a statement to why you didn't have to file for taxes.

I did not file taxes, I did attach a statement. The only thing I (the petitioner) did wrong was instead of writing the years and zero next to them, I wrote "see attachment." The problems with the 1040s are for co-sponsor, not me.

I am asking about the co-sponsor,not me the petitioner.

Sorry, I was unclear.

Why didnt they get tax transcripts like the guides recommend? All i can think is some of the supporting documents are missing. Have you called and talked to an operator or a supervisor to get more clarification?

That's the thing is that the tax transcripts WERE included.

I've talked to 4 dif people am going to call again tomorrow morning and have my grandfather (the co-sponsor) call tomorrow. He's more intimidating and is actually a tax lawyer/public account. Which is weird that he got an RFE for all these things.

Anyway, I have a copy of the packet in my hands and ALL OF THE TAX TRANSCRIPTS are here.

Possible they lost something?

The part about not including a statement about not filing taxes doesn't make sense because a. he did file taxes and b. everything was included.
