Tax question

[Steph&Jack 1]

Hey everyone!

I have a question regarding the affidavit of support and filing last years taxes, hope someone out there knows the answer!

I am the US citizen (petitioner) and my fiance is a UK citizen. We met in September of 2011 the first day I arrived in the UK to attend graduate school. I lived off of student loans until Jan 2012 when I decided to get a part time weekend job at a local clothing store. I never thought much about it as I was paying taxes to the UK gov't and didn't really make much money at all (maybe 5,000 pounds total for the year I worked there). I worked until Jan 2013 and just got back into the USA two months ago and didn't file taxes for this last year as I lived overseas, was a student, and wouldn't have made the $9,750 needed to file anyways.

However while we are waiting for our NOA2 (we are october 11 filers) I am trying to figure out everything we need to still do yet I started to freak out that when I file our affidavit of support I don't have this last years taxes.

I know I could still back file but how would I even do that? The UK doesn't give out W2s like we do here so I really don't know how much I made exactly, I can roughly guess but that makes me nervous. Could I call the UK's HM Revenue Service and get a statement of what my earnings were for the last UK tax year (it's different months that the USA). Am I able to just use my last paystub from the UK job?

OR the easiest version would be to just write a letter stating I didn't need to legally file because I was a student and didn't make enough money to file? Would I need to show evidence though?

Sorry that this is so long, just want to make sure that I am doing everything right so that when we finally get our NOA2 we don't have any problems.

Thanks for any advice! x
