Hi
The italian consulate only asked for one tax transcript.. which i sent (2007) even if you are self-employed. Which i am.. I made well over the 125% poverty level.. so i just sent my tax returns. This is sufficient no?

thanks in advance

If the consulate just asks for past year's return, and the I-134, then you should be fine, some consulates want evidence of current income, like a recent bank statement showing recent deposits and activity, pay stubs etc..
