You do not submit both the tax return with W2 and the tax transcript. You can submit the return with W2 OR you can submit the transcript in lieu of the return with W2.

Your missing proof of U.S. Citizenship of the sponsor.

Cover Sheet

Form I864EZ

2010, 2009 and 2008 Federal Return Tax Transcripts

Letter from employer stating annual salary

Most recent pay stub

I don't think there is a need to submit any citizenship paper work if you are the only sponsor. They know you are citizen since USCIS processed your application.

Just remove the copies of tax returns and mail the rest. It may be good to have a cover letter and I hope you have one.

Caution: Be patient and don't ever make the mistake I made.

I was just approved on Tuesday with the following:

Cover Sheet

Cover Letter

864EZ

Copy of my 2010 Federal return + W2

Letter from employer

3 recent pay stubs (that were basically all the same since I'm salaried)

No RFEs, thank goodness. I know the form only requires one year of tax info, but I was nervous after sending it that they might want to see more anyway. I would have sent for '08 and '09, but couldn't find my W2 for one of those years, and was too impatient to wait for transcripts from the IRS lol.

If I may ask.. what is the difference between an I-864 and I-864EZ? Thank you.

Not sure what all elements of the form are different, it seems that if you have a "simple" case (one sponsor, one beneficiary) you can use the EZ.

This is from the EZ form:

Who May Use Form I-864EZ?

1. You are the person who filed or is filing the Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, for a relative being sponsored;

2. The relative you are sponsoring is the only person listed on the Form I-130 petition;

3. The income you are using to qualify is based entirely on your salary or pension and is shown on one or more Forms W-2 provided by your employer(s) or former employer(s).

Who May Not Use Form I-864EZ?

1. The relative you are sponsoring is not the only person immigrating based upon the underlying visa petition;

2. You filed or are filing a Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker, for the immigrant you are sponsoring;

3. You are a joint sponsor;

4. You are a "substitute sponsor" filing because the original I-130 petitioner is deceased.

I-864EZ can be used if you are only using income to meet the financial requirements of sponsorship AND the person listed on the I-130 is the only person you are sponsoring.

[MrsE. 1]

Thank you! So meaning to say if I am only petitioning my husband and my income is sufficient enough I can use the ez form right?
