The law states that all the income papers must be in the hands of the employees etc by the end of January. We are so close to that now. It's not that long. Have her work on the papers and get the joint sponsor info and by the time you get it altogether she can file electronically and have that back right away for sending the papers.

I know how you feel.. my husband and I have been in AP for over 6 months now still pending. You may very well get the visa after they get this info and review it. don't worry each day that passes is a day closer...

n btw im a friend of your fiance... just hang in there.. wish you all the best!!!!

Even if she can't financially sponsor you she still has to submit those papers. She is still considered the MAIN sponsor and then the co sponsor is the one that is that is showing financial ability... maybe that clarifies a bit? so yes every person calling their loved one even if they have no income has to submit tax papers etc...

Considering the country, everything is normal. You should have expected all this.

Even if she isn't working she still has to file taxes each year.. everybody here does... unless they are exempt and that requires being qualified to be exempt and the IRS approving that.

Hello Eabbas, wht a day i had i called my accountant, he told me he dont see a way that i can file taxes since i dont currantly have an income

then i told him that i will contact IRS to be on the safe side, I was on the phone with them for over one hour and then i was advised that I

can file 1040EZ form and they will process it, so now that I have that all cleared up I hope that the embassy will accept that because its

just two pages form and there is no W2 to go with it, however thanx so much for all ur help, I will keep u posted abt the progress.

that;s good info and if you include the other pages we talked about this morning that should be complete the tax issues they have. I'm glad you found a solution to this albeit a round about way... Good luck!

When my mother submitted her I-864 for her brothers she received a RFE requesting the same thing.

What I did is write a letter on her behalf stating this (sometimes they just need it down in writing). Her petitions were approved shortly after.

Hope this helps.....here is the sample of the letter:

Case Number:

Petitioner’s Name:

Petitioner’s DOB:

Applicant’s Name:

Applicant’s DOB:

DATE

To whom it may concern,

I, <SPONSORS FULL NAME>, am unable to provide any Tax or W2 documents for the years 2009, 2010 and 2011 (as well as for any/all preceding years) because I have never been employed, nor did I have any viable source of income during these years. I am therefore exempted from tax filing requirements on the basis of no income for 2009, 2010 and 2011. My husband, <FULL NAME>, who is also my cosponsor on this case, did file tax returns for the past three years, in which I am listed as his dependent. His most recently filed (2008, 2009 & 2011) tax documents are attached to this case, along with the signed form I-864 & I-864A forms. My income listed on the I-864 Affidavit of Support form for the years 2009 as $0.00, 2010 as $0.00 and 2011 as $0.00.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at <EMAIL ADDRESS> or at <PHONE NUMBER>. Thank you very much and I am hoping for your very kind consideration.

Respectfully Yours,

<SPONSORS FULL NAME>

DEAR S&S thank you so much for that info and yes it have been very helpful, however i did contact IRS today and i explain to them,and I was advised that

I can file form 1040ez, which i believe is for single no income ppls I hope that would be sufficient for them, but I have to wait until about the second

week of January to be able to get that for them. But your information was very helpful, and I thank you so much.

Moshin,

I would recommend your fiancee in USA get a family member to co-sponsor immediately. Because the US Immigration is wanting to make she can financially sponsor you. If she hasn't been working for 4 years, that's a huge red flag and 100% resulting in AP. Embassy wants to know, how she supports herself (income, savings, mortgage,etc..). In terms of taxes,as a US Citizen, regardless of her income, she must have filed tax returns. That's the reason the embassy is requesting them. The 1040EZ form is the simple tax return for single, one-income earners in the USA. It's the very basic form for US Citizens without mortgage deductions, or businesses.

Good luck.. will try to answer to your questions..

First of all u need a co-sponsor usually family member who can fillout the form show the income.

Send them 09,10 tax returns and the last few paystubs of 2011.where it shows this year's

earning. Waiting 5 months for tax returns is stupid.

P.s. No one else out of family would help u coz its like taking responsibility. Ask her to talk yo some one in the family.

Good Luck
