I864 - Part 4

[bhlloy 0]

Hi all, just a quick easy question (I hope)

My USC fiancee has come straight out of university into a job and as such doesn't have any years of tax history for Part 4 - question C. The form states that in that case, she needs to provide an explanation, which is fine, but there doesn't appear to be a corresponding box to tick. Do we just leave that question blank? If so, where do we put the explanation?

I also have someone who is willing to co-sponsor if necessary. Is the lack of tax history something that will hurt my case (my fiancee is making way above the poverty line, so income isn't a problem, but she's only been in the job a couple of months)

Thanks in advance

Your fiancee would answer the question as if she had filed tax returns. So presumably, if she wasn't married last year, then she marks "I filed a single/separate..." Then she writes zero in the spot where it asks her income for the most recent tax year.

I wrote "0" for income and then wrote on the side, "see attached" and attached a letter stating that I was a full-time student, for how many years, and also attached a certified letter from my school attesting to that.

Since your fiance now has a job, I'm not 100% sure if this is the best way to proceed, hopefully someone else here will know.
