Tax Documents for 2023

[Sizzy and Terry 2]

With the grace of the Almighty, my mother's I-130 was just processed. Now I am preparing for her NVC approval, the question I have is, if I need to submit my IRS approval for year 2022 or can I just submit W-2s for 2022 and tax returns for 2021.

 

The issue is I am a W-2 employee and I also started a business last year so, my taxes are a little complicated for 2022 which may require me working with my CPA for quite sometime before we can file our taxes(just a disclaimer: nothing illegal, its just I didn't do a good job in organizing everything).

 

Anyway, I don't want to waste anytime and I want her application out of my hands as soon as possible since it already took a year for her I 130 approval!

Any advice will be much appreciated.

They won't be looking for 2022 taxes until after the April 15th filing deadline. As long as interview is before then, you don't need to provide the 2022 taxes.

US embassy Islamabad will most likely schedule interview by the end of this year.

My question is can I just submit my 2021 docs and at the end of interview, I will bring my 2022 taxes and a new AOS.

As mentioned above, NVC will not require 2022 tax documents until after the April filing deadline.  So yes, you may submit just your 2021 tax documents until that date, and bring the 2022 documents and updated I-864 to the interview.  Note that some consulates require that documents updated after DQ be uploaded to CEAC prior to the interview.  I don't know if Islamabad has that policy.
