[rhead 8]

I know this is a common question but i tried to search questions similar to this but cant seem to find one. We received an email checklist regarding our AOS. My husband file his 2013 like 4-3 weeks ago but no tax transcript yet. He just include his w2. Aside from that, he include his 2012 and 2011 tax transcripts along with 6 paystubs and certificate of employment. What shall we do? Where do we need to get the adjusted gross income? are we missing something? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

NVC Special Instructions

Edited April 4, 2014 by rhead

[B & G 200]

For his 2013 taxes, his W2 is not enough. He had to send in the entire package that he sent into the IRS to NVC since a transcript is not available. That includes the W2, 1040 or 1040A or 1040EZ (which ever form he filed), 1099, schedules etc. Whatever is applicable to you.

As for the checklist Part 6, that number has to be taken from the 1040 form or whichever form he used. Not from his W2s.

Ask you husband to dig up all the paperwork, photocopy it and send it in with a new I-864 that has the correct info on it.

Thanks for that..yes he did submit his tax form and w2 but no 2013 transcript yet.the nvc doesnt asked for any additional evidence except to corect the amount on items 13.1.a..

[B & G 200]

Which tax form did he file? Thats where you get the number.. for 1040 adn the 1040A it is the gross income number. If he filed for a 1040EZ its the adjusted gross income.

Just as the check list says. What number did you husband state on the I-864?

[rhead 8]

He filed for 1040EZ from 2011-2013. We realized the one we first filed on nvc have decimal points like for example 40,111.07. Do you think thats the reason we got a checklist for that? I dont know where he get the decimal points but when we checked his online tax form from h and R block theres no decimal point at all! he send W2 and his tax form for 2013 together with his 6 paystubs, current letter of employemnt and tax transcripts for 2012 and 2011 respectively. Would this be enough?

The decimals are exactly why you got the checklist. the number used on the I-864 has to match with the adjust gross income that is shown on the 1040EZ.

From what I can see from your checklist, they are not asking for additional paperwork, just for the number to be corrected and match your 1040EZ.
