NVC is requesting 2022 W-2, 1099, and Schedule forms from both me and the joint sponsor. However, I didn't live or work in the US during 2022,and I was born there but never lived, while the joint sponsor did. What should I do in this situation to meet the NVC's requirements?

All sponsors must provide either proof of having filed taxes or explain why they were not required to file taxes for 2022.

@Basharazz are you sure you don't owe IRS any taxes? As a citizen you must pay US taxes (if meeting certain income thresholds) regardless of where you live in the world.

USC must file taxes when working out of the country

 

there is an exemption for the following amounts per year as Egypt has  a tax treaty with the US

 

However, you may qualify to exclude your foreign earnings from income up to an amount that is adjusted annually for inflation ($107,600 for 2020, $108,700 for 2021, $112,000 for 2022, and $120,000 for 2023).

 

If u did not work,  u should send for the IRS letter by getting letter from IRS

Use Form 4506-T to request tax return transcripts, tax account information, W-2 information, 1099 information, verification of non-filing, and record of account.

 

Both U and joint sponsor have to provide proof of US residency using USCIS guides for documents needed

Send the joint sponsor's W-2 and 1099 forms, and an explanation for why you were not required to file a tax return.  That you were not IN the USA is not a reason.  The ONLY reason is if your income was below the filing threshold.

So, no W2 or 1099 forms because your income was foreign.  Explain that.
