some say I can qualify others say i need tax returns, which is the truth?

You need tax returns OR you must cite the IRS regulation that exempts you from filing. If you weren't working, that's your exemption. However, you said you worked two months last year, so you should file a 2006 tax return, if for no other reason than to get most or all of the withheld tax money refunded to you.

Current income is the most important, so yes, pay stubs and employer letter will do it.

However, no matter what petition you file, it will likely be 2008 before you need to complete either affidavit of support.

thank you, this is what I needed to hear.

do i attach a letter explaining that I had not been working?

also, will marrying and fileing k3 before she leaves america in a month save any time?

or will it be the same if she goes back and we file k1
