last week i got my joint sponsor's income tax return. Then i noticed that her form 1040 says "do not file" across it. I didn't ask her to get a transcript from IRS anymore since she has a copy of her income tax return from her tax preparer. The information there are the same as the other forms though and the other forms look normal (1099, schedule.) My mother in-law says she doesn't know why because it was just given to her and didn't ask. Need advise. Thank you.

My husband's 1040 form from 2008 tax year looks like this too because he used H&R block to file.

So there is a huge "COPY - DO NOT FILE" in all caps written across it. It should be fine, it just means it is a copy of the form that was filed for your mother in law. If she has everything else that should go with the 1040 form, you should be fine (w-2s and 1099s, etc..) I would think it's OK that the form indicates that it is a copy. There is no way she can provide the original that was filed, because, well.. she filed it already..:)

That's such a relief. Actually it doesn't have the word "copy." It just says do not file do not file do not file" although the tax information are there so i guess it's fine. They filed taxes anyway. And yes, I already submitted the w-2s. This is for my RFE. Just wanna make sure. Thanks a lot!

Oh it's for an RFE? Did you not submit your mother-in-law's 1040 form in your initial submission?

If you sent her 1040 already and they still gave you an RFE, they may not be happy with what you have sent them.

Maybe you should actually have her go to a local IRS office to get tax transcripts.

Because this is for RFE response, I would make sure you send everything tax related, including copies of the w-2s even though you already submitted these.

My RFE wasn't tax related but it listed some forms of evidence which included things that I had already sent to them.

I sent everything again and then some.

Better safe than sorry.

Yup, her 1040 wasn't submitted. i only sent the w-2s. Didn't carefully read instructions. Anyhow, yea, i think i'd still submit the copy 1040 since the info there reflects in the other forms. Thank you!
