I-134, Self-employed, Total Income ?

[journeyman 0]

This is a 2-part question:

I.

I'm self-employed and am sub-contractor via another contracting company for a major software development corporation. I'm planning on submitting last 3 yrs tax returns: copies of 1040, W-2, and 1120S forms.

Per the I-134 instructions (section II. C) self-employed individuals are only supposed to submit the copy of the last income tax return filed.

Is that all is required, or a letter from the contracting company would also be helpful, if so what should be content of the letter.

II.

Also, IRS form 1040 has 3 relevant lines:

Line 7: Salary/Wages

Line 17: S-Corp Income

Line 22: Total Income

Do they look at the total income (line 22 of the IRS form 1040), which shows the sum of all my income or just the salary I paid myself (line 7)

My 1040 Line 7 is about 250% more than the mentioned poverty guidelines for a family of 1 person. (I'm the only person in the household).

Thanks.

journeyman,

Line 22. Income other than income from employment is nevertheless income, all of your income can be used to sponsor an alien.
