Tax returns are your best evidence of income, virtually all embassies and consulates treat K-1 and K-3 visas like immigrant visas and use the requirements of the I-864 with the I-134, A requirement of the I-864 is tax return data.

Get tax transcripts they are free. http://www.irs.gov/faqs/faq1-6.html

I read all the time about visa interviews resulting in blue slips, requesting tax returns.

Yes. Tax returns are required for Thailand. One of the forms in packet 3 (DS-156), in the middle of the form, asks for 'evidence of financial support'. To meet this requirement, we filled out the Affidavit of Support form from packet 3 (Form I-134) and also attached three years worth of tax returns + w2s (all copies) as proof of income.

While on the DS-156 form it doesn't specifically ask for the tax returns themselves, this is how my lawyer (who I only used in the initial month of filing...to help start the process) informed me to meet this requirement. I had also provided these same tax returns + W2s when I filed my original I-129F.

Hope this helps,
