I have not worked and therefore, as my income was zero I am not required to file a tax return for this period.

A short letter from the USC explaining the lack of returns should be enough, with a reason. Here is what my husband wrote- this was accepted no problem:

To Whom It May Concern:

I am Mr Penguin, Penguin's husband and petitioning sponsor. I did not file an income tax return for the years 2005, 2006 or 2007 because I have not worked during my 3 year residence within the Republic of Ireland. Once I came to Ireland, I was unable to find work and so used savings; I was maintained by my wife upon her income and savings. Since I made no income for these years of any type, I was not required to file an income tax return with the Internal Revenue Service.

Sincerely, Mr Penguin.

Bye: Penguin

Me: Irish/ Swiss citizen, and now naturalised US citizen. Husband: USC; twin babies born Feb 08 in Ireland and a daughter in Feb 2010 in Arkansas who are all joint Irish/ USC. Did DCF (IR1) in 6 weeks via the Dublin, Ireland embassy and now living in Arkansas.

Thankyou,Penguin----I have not worked at all the last 6 years,but have received interest on savings,which counts as income. Luckily(for thispurpose),I only have been getting very little interest earnings---2 to 3 %...during these bad times....and yearly has been no more than 7000$. I guess I will write a very simple letter saying that.. Thanks agn...:)

I would also add the exemption from IRS. Check out their website for the exact citation for the years you were not required to file taxes.
