My wife and I are trying to get ready for the NVC part of the CR-1 process and we're a bit confused about what needs to be sent with the I-864 form. Is it sufficient to just send the W2 for the last 3 years and tax transcripts or do we have to get a letter of employment and send the pay stubs as well?

If you send tax transcripts, you don't need to send W2's.

On the form, you are making a claim of current income; pay stubs and/or the letter from the employer back up that claim.

The bare minimum requirement is the most recent tax return.

In an ideal world it is worth sending: three years of tax returns, a letter of employment and recent pay stubs.

When sending an I-864 form it is sufficient to just make copies of your complete 2010 Tax Return which includes: W2, 1099s and any schedules you may have. Meaning your complete tax return from last year - that's the best! Just as long as you are well above the poverty line of $19K for the year – gross. If you ordered 3 years of tax return transcripts already then you might as well include all of them in the package – just as long as the transcript is yours only (Individual) and not joint. Also, make sure you list them on your coversheet later. Don't forget to check “Optional box #25” ...have fun! :thumbs:

Don't forget if you have 403b - add that too in your income
