is there a solution out there?

i just want to seek some enlightenment, anyone here might have the answers to my questions. anyone might be able to give some advice.

my husband failed to file taxes last 2007 - being self-employed, he did not earn any in hauling as well as early last year. then when he got employed for a couple of months, he got arrested and served time in jail for defending his property (assault). after paying bond, he got out. while waiting for the trial to end he got a job recently, but last month after a jury trial he got convicted of a felony. next week will be his sentencing.

we're almost done w/the process,but we got another checklist yesterday, NVC is asking for his tax receipts...how are we going to produce that when he hasn't filed any for the past 2 or 3 years?

they are also asking for his W2s when he only worked for a couple of months.

we have a co-sponsor though - his mom.

can anyone help me know if there's still a light at the end of the tunnel?

its been a tough journey for us. tougher than normal. even if he wont be sentence to jail he will surely be on probation which wont allow him to move here in Philippines instead.

Sorry to hear about your ordeal. However there is light at the end of the tunnel. Any financial documents that he may have e.g. pay stubs, bank records etc., along with documents from co-sponsor... tax returns etc. They just want to know that the intending immigrant does not become a burden to the state. The have what is known as a poverty guidline.

Main thing is he filed his 2008 taxes even if he didn't make much. Should be OK with that issue. No idea about his felony and how that will impact the process.

Did he file 2008 and 2009 taxes? It sounds like he did not file in 2007-2009. Is that correct? You will need to provide a written statement as to why he has not filled taxes. I would also include his pay check stubs for the couple of months that he did work. As long as his mother makes enough to sponsor him you should be ok.
