If my past 3 years tax returns dont show good income but my current job allows me to support my wife will I need a co-sponsor or will they take a look at my current job and my current salary over my previous tax returns?

Thanks everyone!

Their main concern is your current income, if you are making enough money to support the potential immigrant. The previous years income taxes are just to make sure you don't owe the Irs.

Yes, this is correct. Also NVC will definitely want to see your employment letter showing your current pay and/or latest Pay stubs, just to be sure that your current pay is true.

I only had 2009 and 2010 w2 and barely making the cut of line. But my current income is well above poverty line. I did not include any new pay stub from my current job just employments letter from manager/hr and also included initial offer letter showing what I will be making yearly.

I think previous income matters but not has much as you current income. i thought i-864p is just to show what you are currently making? can anyone confirm this.

ok i think i got it. So the main thing that concerns them is my current financial state. and pretty much the point of the previous tax returns is to show that I pay my taxes and that I actually file
