I-864 Question

[cokebbeh 0]

Hello All,

I know this question mat have been answered before. I received my I-864 package today. It categorically stated that it should be returned with the most current year tax return (2005). I have already gathered the ones for the last three years. Is it necessary to send all those or will the requested 1 year suffice. Will my embassy request the three years or they will accept what the NVC submit to them?

Any answers or suggestions will be highly appreiciated.....

The instructions with the new I-864 form just indicates the most recent year tax return, (2005) but also states that you can provide past 3 years (2005-2003) returns. Copies are acceptable, and if you have time order the tax transcripts from the IRS, they are free, and are better than copies of the returns.

Also if your income level is well above 125% poverty line consider using I-864EZ, less documentation is required with that form.

What Dan said.

Extra years can usually help; they show a history of your income. They will be accepted by the NVC and the Embassy.

I-864 Special Instructions;

You may also, at your option, submit a photocopy or an Internal Revenue Service-issued transcript of your complete Federal income tax returns for your second and third most recent tax years if you believe these additional tax returns may help you establish the ability to maintain your household income at the governing threshold set forth in Form I-864P, Poverty Guidelines.
