Tax Record Question

[amrssnowangel 0]

My Ex husband was still legally able to use my as a dependent on our 2006 income taxes. I did not have a personal income that year...but do this year have full time income exceeding 125% poverty level. Will a tax TRANSCRIPT do? Or do I need the tax records WITH W2's??? I have a bank letter, letter of employment, pay stubs and my social security read out showing the last 26 years of yearly earnings reported. (showing I worked every year BUT 2006). The transcript doesn't show who earned what wages.

Thanks.

Also, here is what I have for my I134 to send, will this do?? Or will I NEED a co sponsor?

1. I134 Affidavit

2. Bank Statements from past year showing deposits for my personal account and a joint account

3. Bank Letter with current balance and account open dates

4. Bank Letter from JOINT account I am listed on showing current balance

5. Letter from Employer showing income of over 125% poverty level (although can only document employment since June)

6. Current paystubs for 5 continuous months

7. Social Security Record showing consistant income over last 26 years (I had no income in 2006 to stay home and care for elderly parents)

8. MOst recent house appraisal (in parents name BUT gifted in deed to me)

9. Gift of Deed legal document gifting 75% of home to me

I do have my parents whom reside together with me as co sponsers......but will I need them??? We have a household income well in excess of the poverty level but that won't play into this until the I864.

I would list only income, no assets, on the I-134, then leave out 2,3,4,8 and 9 above. No need to mention your parents. You have sufficient current income and documentation with what will be left from above.

State your current annual income as what you would receive working a full twelve months. For example, if you just started a $40,000 a year job two months ago, state your current annual income as $40,000.

Yes, really.

I am moving this down to the MENA forum for comment in case there is more insight there. I may be unnecessarily concerned that the OP needs to go deeper than current income to prove her financial stability. I am also concerned how much she should or should not point to her apparently recent divorce insofar as fraud and the bonafies are concerned.

What fraud??? My divorce is legal...and it shows when we were seperated..what does recent finalization of a divorce have to do with fraud?? And I was off ONE year without income?? AND have co sponsers with a HOUSEHOLD income of over 50,000 dollars annual....why the concern?? What am I missing??

dont panic. One red flag in detecting fraud cases is a quick marriage after a divorce. I think Rebecca was only suggesting that people going through MENA might have better insight in address this issue and how to show good evidence to counter any red flags..

Well, this isn't a quick marriage after a divorce...I"ve been with my SO for 4 years and we are only engaged...not married yet. I do have several red flags....but the evidence submitted covers them all. In Shaa Allah. I"ve had more than one marriage....and in the divorce papers it states when we actually seperated which was a few years ago.. nothing was quick. Just finally had the freedom to move \forward. Just that since our divorce wasn't FINALIZED till after jan 1 2006 my ex was legally able to use me as a deduction...and since i had no income I agreed. We were seperated LONG before as is the sworn testimony in our divorce papers. None the less...I do have a few red flags...No panic..just wondered why moved...

So were you filing joinly with your ex? or did he lisrt you as a dependent?

If you ordered a tax transcript of your own, what woul dit show?

Someone else here can talk about the finacial papers required for Cairo in terms of how many years back to they like to see evidence. Going through Morocco, we did not have to show any finacial information.

For AOS i know we sent in three years if tax info, but not sure that wil be necessary for you. It's not required, but it helped our case to be able to show it I think.

I guess u'd say we filed jointly cause of the tax deductions. I did't have an income anyways... I guess I need to find out what is required for Cairo..I know the I134 requires bank statments and one year tax...but I didn't have that income that year...so Im uncertain...we just don't want to delay things by having them ask for more info...we do have several red flags...(age gap, recent divorce), but have a long courtship, with 4 visits and I'l be there for the interview. Im Just soo uncertain about the financial part...Cairo is slow enough without me holding us up even more with having wrong evidence.

That's exactly why I moved it.

Each consulate is different. I was unsure you were getting proper advice in the consulate forum so I moved it down here so someone else processing through your consulate might see your questions.
