What ITR year to submit?

[geff44 30]

I received the hard copy of our NOA2 approval the other day ... just waiting to get the #MNL number before proceeding. I am eyeing to schedule my fiancee's interview for February 2014. My question is regarding the income tax return year. Can I submit 2012 or do I have to use 2013 ITR? The place I work usually sends out W2 form late Jan. or Feb Im worried I will not be able to use 2013 as I will be in the Philippines by Feb. Any input is appreciated.

Like said you are good using the 2012 tax return, not required to file a tax return for 2013 until April 15th.

(BTW the company is required to send out the W-2 by the end of January http://www.ssa.gov/employer/filingDeadlines.htm )
