IRS lost paperwork, taxes from 2013 not showing filed

[BSASNOLA 0]

Hoping someone can advise!!

My accountant filed my taxes much later than she was supposed to - mailed Oct. 15 2014 per certified mail. Verified that they were in receipt from tracking number - but the IRS has no documentation they received my taxes nor the w-7 application for my husband's ITIN number.

I also put in an expedite request, not knowing this was going on and surprisingly got a yes!! So now the embassy has all of my paperwork, including my AOS I-864 which I mailed in a copy of my taxes that were to be filed.

No I am extremely worried that I will have to re-submit the w-& and taxes and could hold up the process for 3 more months - and of course now it is tax season!!

Has anyone run into something like this?? What can I do?

The embassy should be contacting me within the next week to advise, but I'm hoping for the best!

Any advice will be appreciated1

Have the accountant prepare for you a COMPLETE tax return and ask what supporting documents you need to attach--i.e. W-2's, 1099, etc--and submit that to the USCIS. You do not have to submita tax transcript, but it is the perferred method, but a COMPLETE tax return is also an option.

Good luck,

Dave

Hello BSASNOLA, i am in the same position unfortunately. I filed my amended 2013 taxes much later than i was supposed to. As of today the IRS website shows they have accepted my return but it it still pending to be adjusted. When i try to print out my 2013 tax receipt, it just states there is a verification of non-filing. Im worried the tax receipt will not reflect the correct information by the time i have to send the I-864. Please keep me updated how your case goes with filing a complete tax return and supporting documents as Dave&Rosa suggested. Thanks!

I will definitely keep you updated! We did get an interview request and nothing was mentioned about information missing in my I-864!

So hopefully there will be no issue and a bit of relief for you! Will let you know after March 2nd!

AC SQRD - We got approved for our visa!! The officer seemed really nervous when asking questions (I think it was his first times) and he said something about the AOS and I could see there was a page marked. So I just started to explain what happened and how the IRS lost it. He said the AOS is important, but not the only factor and then approved us!!

I had submitted all of my "would be filing" and other info for the previous 2 years. All good!! So relieved.

Good luck!
