Question on the Affidavit for Support (I-864)

[AJ35 0]

First post here; sorry if this has been asked before in the past but I couldn't find anything concrete.

On the Affidavit for Support (I-864), it states that I need a copy of my Federal Income Tax Return and W-2s.

I made a copy for myself but lost it when I moved; so I need to contact the IRS to get this done. There are two forms it looks like to do this, the 4506 (request for copy) and the 4506-T (request for transcript).

Since the 4506-T (request for transcript) is free, I would prefer to do that one; but I don't know if that will do or if I need the 4506 copy.

I know most people probably don't lose their copies, but if anyone has dealt with this and has some advice, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
