Jun 2023, received RFE asking for joint sponsor & my 1040 for 2022
Aug 17 2023, RFE due!
I'm unable to find a joint sponsor, and I'm wondering how to handle my case without one. I have a few choices and really need advice!
A. Submit current letter of employment, signed by employer, and payment stubs.
B. Do everything in (A) and amend 2022 tax return to make AGI higher by only excluding some income.
C. Do everything in (A and B) and amend 2020,2021 tax returns to make AGI higher.
Browsing on topics on this forum, it sounds like A would suffice since I am now employed full-time. Previous tax AGI wouldn't matter?? If it does matter than I can amend last years tax return and immediately upon 1040-X submission go ahead and submit my reply to the RFE.
