Regarding the "Current Individual Income" on Page 4, Part 6 - Question# 7. Is this amount supposed to be my "current" income as of the moment or is it something I should find in my recent W2 or tax return?  

 

I read I will need to provide pay stubs from at least 6 months back to this date. Has anyone sent copies of paystubs of less than 6 months and not get into any issues? Just making sure because I was thinking that 6 months worth can be a lot of papers. 

 

Also, is it okay to send a tax return copy instead of a IRS transcript for my last year taxes? I ask because I haven't filed my last year taxes yet, so is it okay if I file taxes and send the AOS application soon after with the 1040 copy or will it be better if I use the 2019 tax IRS transcripts?

Current annual income is calculated as follows:

CURRENT pay period income (gross) X number of pay periods per year = Current annual income.

Example:  If your current monthly gross income is $5,000, the your current annual income is $60,000.

You don't require 6 months of pay stubs.  A transcript is better than a tax return, but you can send a copy of the 1040 package.

Is the current monthly gross income supposed to be shown on a W2/paystub etc or am I estimating with my paycheck amount every month? Sorry for the stupid questions as I am not familiar with all of these terms. My job has a website where it shows my current annual salary. Can I use that for the current annual income and provide some pay stubs to supplement?

A W2 shows salary from the previous year.  A current paystub should show current gross income.
