Affidavit of support no tax returns

[donnie ambra 5]

Hello,on affidavit of support,it says in order to sponsor your wife,you have to provide copy of tax return OR provide financial proof of savings. Has anyone did this option before? i have enough savings and i'm currently employed in US,can show them bank account statements and copies of paystubs (2k a week) instead of tax returns (don't have them)?

Do you just not have the documents, or did you never file?

 

If you don't have the documents, you can get a tax return transcript form the IRS pretty easily: https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

 

If you haven't filed taxes, you need to either:

1) If you were required to file taxes but didn't, then file back taxes first.

2) If you were not required to file taxes (i.e. if your income was below the minimum threshold to file), provide a signed statement stating why you were not required to file.

you have pay stubs 

you have to file taxes

like above said if you filed,  IRS can give you a transcript / just walk into IRS office (or request online or by mail)

need photo ID and SS to request a copy

if you did not file,  do so
