Putting together our AOS packet as we speak. Will the last 2 tax returns be enough (e.g 2014 and 2013) or will i need to include my tax return from 2012?

Hi,

I would include your tax transcripts for 2012-2014 (if you've filed your taxes already/got your return or had to pay). If you havent filed yet, I would do your 2011-2013 tax transcripts. You can request your transcripts at irs.gov and get them immediately via the website and saved to your computer/printed out. I just submitted our packet (for a CR/IR visa though) and included my 2014 W2s and my 2012, 2013, & 2014 IRS transcripts.

Mar 24, 2015 - Called NVC and was able to review DS-261 over the phone; added emails, designated self as agent of choice. Should be able to pay IV Fee & fill out DS-260 in one week (31/03/15)

You really only need the most recent taxes with the 864. If you have consistent income and a statement from your employer showing consistent employment, this shouldn't be an issue. I included my 2013 taxes only when we filed my wife's AOS, and updated it with the 2014 taxes at the time of the interview.

I can't say that it hurts to include more information, but in our case it wasn't necessary.

Good Luck!

You need to list the Total Income from the last 3 years, but you only have to submit the most recent year's complete tax return or IRS transcript. You should also include proof of your current income.
