I 864EZ filing with 1040X Amended Tax filed

Hi ALL,

 

I have a question filing out I 864EZ where it asks for total income for most recent tax year. I know that I am supposed to use line 21 or 22 from my 1040 for this but here is my confusion.

 

I had filed my tax return for 2016 as single simply because turbo tax determined to file as single since i did not provide SSN for my spouse. I then read through visa journey and decided to file 1040X amended tax to change status married filing separately. In this process my accountant also determined that he missed some of my dividend in original 1040. Now my new 1040 has different total income (adjusted gross income) compared to original. When I download tax return transcript from IRS, it shows total income from original 1040. When I download Tax account transcript, it shows total income from new 1040. 

 

two questions:

1. In I 864EZ, part 5, line 6a, should I include total income from original 1040 (tax return transcript) or new 1040 (tax account transcript)?

2. With AOS package, Should I include Tax return transcript or tax account transcript?

 

there is no concern using either but want to use the correct one that prevents any checklist.

 

Thanks

Get a copy of your 2016 IRS transcript from the IRS online or by mail... thus is your actual return ...figures that the IRS has for your for 2016 and should have the correct figures you need... your 1040 is of course superseeded by your 1040X.... so the official transcript is better. 

Thanks. But When I download most recent tax transcript from IRS it shows original 1040 amount and not corrected one. When I spoke to IRS, they said tax return transcript does not get updated for amended tax return on tax account gets updated.
