Dear Jeavgar,

I'm so sorry this has happened to you. Your examiner must have had some suspicion about the actual income of your petitioner, because the IRS transcript is supposed to actually be a higher and more complete document than a tax return and W-2.

Or...you had an examiner who just didn't understand the "rules". NVC is notorious for this, but I'm really surprised the Consular Officer has done this. Hopefully you can get over the insanity of this request very soon.

Best of luck.

Susan in NY

Thanks Susan.

When the Consular Officer first brought up the concern regarding the need of the W2 I was surprised. She then went and asked her supervisor if it was actually needed. It was even more surprising when he said it was needed. Maybe they confused the IRS transcript as a tax return instead, because a W2 was provided with the joint sponsor as well as the IRS transcript to show individual income from a joint tax filing. Why it's needed at all is bizarre. It's not like you can really argue much with them. The examiner may have been suspicious though, who knows. Our joint sponsor earns more than enough to cover us. I've been supporting my wife while we've been living in Australia as she has limited work rights, and my income won't follow over to the USA, so maybe they want to confirm my wife's previous US income with a W2.

I sent them a copy of the W2 and the full tax return obtained from TurboTax. Hopefully they have everything they need now. I do feel like if I had of gotten another CO it would have been approved on the spot, so it's just luck of the draw.

i Had interview also in june......Petitioner(My wife) didn't work ever....we have only joint sponsor and i m also bringing 2014 tax transcript....should it be enough....or i need to bring something from petitioner at interview...?

Loading...

Ordinarily, the transcripts should be sufficient. What has happened to Jeavgar is VERY unusual.

One can never guess what is in the mind of a Consular Officer, however!

Way to go Zirq!!

I just got my final CC today!! Woot!!

From what I've seen... Montreal typically schedules at the beginning of the month and near the end of the third week if there's still space......

There is a teeny tiny sliver of a chance we may get something, but realistically we should hear something beginning of June :)

Thanks Christina - I am just so anxious!! Want it done already. Not long to go now I guess...We have been patient this long..whats a few more weeks eh? lol

After reading and responding to this thread, I decided to give the NVC a call and found out we have an interview for June 23! No email notification yet, but the operator said it shouldn't be too long.

nice Cortado..I was speaking to my husband today actually wondering whether I should call NVC coz I am that damn anxious to know if I made it into the June Interview Line!! which if you have been scheduled then maybe mine will be towards the end of June.... I got my CC a week after you.... here is hoping for the best.

I am currently outside the US.For the past month, I have being having this response

' The system cannot verify ur identity to access your requested app at this time' when I try accessing IRS transcript online. Our interview date is likely to be early July (per Dweels' stats)

I checked and my refund was deposited April 9th.I was able to access my 2013 transcript online as a guest but I don't have any idea on how to get either a return or a transcript. I don't know if IRS can email transcript to foreign countries..Any ideas???
