Tax transcripts for I864 (merged)

[displayName8490 0]

I filled I-130 for my spouse CR1 and now I’m at the NVC stage!! Filling form I-864 

 

Background: I’m employed with ONE company, and I get rental income from rental property. 

 

Since my salary is enough to sponsor; I’m thinking of providing my employment information and salary in PART-6 of I-864 rather than adding complexity by listing myself as self-employed (landlord) as well, is that ok?  

 

Also, I need help if I need to submit Schedule E (supplemental income and loss) and schedule D (capital gains)

 

So far, I’m planning to submit following documents

 

• Last 3-year Tax return transcripts
• W2 and 1099 MISS
• Employment letter with salary amount 
• Last 6 months paystub 

Do I need to submit Schedule E? (Since I had losses in two of three years)

 

Do I also need to submit schedule D (which I had to file due to stocks gains)

 

Thank you!!!

For your current income skipping the rental income should be OK.  Just the employer letter OR just one pay stub is fine.  Both is fine, but you don NOT need six months of pay stubs.  Your single pay stub almost always shows year to date income.  The six month thing is a decades old artifact in the instructions.  It would apply to people that don't receive modern pay stubs.

 

If you are submitting tax return transcripts they are complete enough.  You only submit "schedules" when you are submitting the complete tax return instead.  Your losses will be reflected in the total income line from the transcripts.  That's the number you'll enter in the tax return information section.  Don't try playing games with that number.  It is what it is.  There's good and bad to being a landlord, when it comes to the I-864.

Yes, but the OP says he's submitting Tax Return Transcripts, not tax return copies.

Hello, 

 

I am preparing AOS documents. I have last 3 years tax transcripts. I thought I would merge all three into ONE file and submit. However, due to security feature I can't merge transcripts. 

 

I will upload all three transcripts separately. However, do you know if these transcripts are Ok to upload as is (since it contains some security features) or I need to print and scan these to remove security features.

 

I don't think these transcripts are password protected. 

 

Thank you!!

I uploaded mine as is - no issue.  Also, separately so I can note them for which year.

If you're using tax return transcripts you don't need W2 forms.

There is no "color" on the I-864, so scan any way you want.

Thank you pushbrk; I read few different places where W2 was requested even after submitting tax transcripts. 

 

Since I have W-2 and 1099 MISC handy; I am thinking to submit it.
