I-864/Authorization for Release of Federal Tax Data

[ggbr 0]

I am putting together everything I need to send with the I-864 using James' shortcuts. Can anyone who has sent the I-864 (Affidavit of Support) recently confirm that the Authorization for Release of Federal Tax Data is not required anymore? I am assuming that it would be safest to sent the authorization unless others can confirm that it is not necessary. FYI: I am self-employed, so my income and tax situation is not typical, however, I do meet the guidelines for minimum income.

You no longer need the Authorization for release of federal tax data. I called NVC my self and asked. They said it was no longer requierd

This is true, I've seen several VJ members say their cases were completed without having to send the Release of Federal Tax Data document.
