Am I risking an RFE if...

[YoungRL 4]

Hey everyone,

 

I know it is highly preferable to send a tax transcript in with the NVC packet, but I'm filing late and the current year transcript availability for my situation is estimated to be 6-8 weeks.  Would it be better for me to wait for a tax transcript, or would it be acceptable for me to send in a copy of my federal tax return (and would I need to send in a state return as well?)?

 

Any advice is much appreciated!

The tax return is fine, just include your w2s as well.

As the person mentioned above, tax returns are perfectly okay if they are accompanied by W2s. They just want to make sure that the income you're reporting is accurate to what you actually make.

Thank you so much, I'll do that!  Do I need to include my state tax returns as well?  Also, I'm assuming they need an original copy of my W2?

No state isn't required because it's a federal paper, but it doesn't really hurt anything if you include it. Just make a copy of the w2 not a big deal. I'm going through the exact same thing.
