Hello,
I have a W-2 Salaried job and some self-employment income.
The I-864 instructions contradict as it says not to include the form 1099 if you include a transcript, but then the checklist says you need to "include a copy of each and every Form 1099". Which one is it?
If you provide a photocopy of your Federal individual income tax returns, you must include a copy of each and every Form W-2 and Form 1099 that relates to your returns. Do not include copies of these forms if you provide an IRS transcript of your Federal individual income tax returns rather than a photocopy unless you filed a joint income tax return with your spouse and are qualifying using only your income.
The following items must be submitted with Form I-864: For ALL sponsors: A copy of your individual Federal income tax return, including W-2s for the most recent tax year, or a statement and/or evidence describing why you were not required to file. Also include a copy of each and every Form 1099, Schedule, and any other evidence of reported income.
If 1099s are needed since I have self employment income, do I use the wage and income transcripts? Those include all 1099s.
Thanks for the help! 😄
