Is w2 and 1040 the same?

[amberlin 0]

Can anyone here give me an idea of whats the difference between the two? Do I need w2 and 1040 by the time I have my interview or can the w2 alone will be good enough together with his paystubs? If you can give me a detailed fact about I-134 along with its supporting documents that will be a big help for us.

No its not the same at all.

You need BOTH of them.

You must have all tax pages including the W2.

He should know how many pages it is if hes filing his taxes! he could always order a tax transcript from the IRS for free too and send that instead of all the pages and w2.

I just ordered transcripts online for 2009 and 2010 and they arrived in about 4 days. He could also have them faxed to himself if he has access to fax machine.

the w-2 are last years earnings from your employment, the 1040 is a tax form that is used to file along with the w-2. if your filing the 1-134 you need the most recent year earnings an pay stubs letter head from your job.

I sent my 2010 tax transcript, 2007-2010 W2s and Letter from employer. The affidavit of support is the most important set of documents that the foreign fiance will submit before the interview. The embassy already knows you will be approved or not and the I-134 seals the deal for an approval.
