IRS tax transcript = complete tax return = federal income tax return.  All the same thing.

You need tax return transcripts, like in the link I provided. Tax return transcript are complete tax returns.

Thanks a lot!

all you need is those tax return transcripts which are alot easier than W-2's because you have to submit additonal documents along with the W-2 form. so return transcripts are alot easier

My husband just asked a lawyer and he said that we need a "complete tax return" and that it takes 30 days to get them ..what??? 

I'm reading and some filers sent form 1040 which can be completed online, do I have to complete that one as well per each year??

 or are these tax return transcripts  all what we need,

are they like "Complete tax returns"?

are they what the RFIE asks for: "Most recent Federal Income tax returns"? 

Oh no I think I missed important docs :-( , different names for the same docs? 

Thank you so much for your help :-) this is stressful

 

Did you order the Tax Return Transcript by mail? If yes, don't worry about 30 days. We ordered the same thing because online keep on kicking us out and it took only 2 weeks for us to receive it, plus we are living in Singapore so if tax is being mailed in USA it might be a lot faster.

I received this exact RFIE last month.  I too thought I had filled out all sections needed. It turns out that there is a page towards the back called "additional information" or something to that effect that the name part gets automatically filled in when you fill in page 3 part 4.  When I got to the end and saw my name in that section that I didn't need I deleted it, which in turn deleted my name on Page 3, part 4.   

 

The part in the RFIE about the joint sponsor confused me too because I did not have nor do I need a joint sponsor. So what I did was send in a new 864 making sure that page 3, part 4 was filled in and added all the necessary supporting documentation needed for an 864 as if it were the first time sending it in.  I know I sent in tax transcripts that I had ordered, a letter from my employer, my birth certificate. There might have been more documents but I am not near my file right now so I can't refer back. I did not send in W2s since it is not needed if you send in an official IRS transcript.  

 

Good luck.

Thank you so much for your replies, I will send everything again tomorrow. This has been so confusing but thanks jnicolel  for sharing your experience with this RFIE, it gives me more peace of mind. I'll send The 864 completed, IRS transcripts  and the other documents I first sent. Hope It's fine now. Thank you so much. I will update my case when I receive news from USCIS. Thanks!
