Some General Questions and Feedback about Civil Docs & AOS

[Aneel 3]

I just need to double check about Civil Documents:

1. I need to submit original documents

2. I also need to submit one set of photocopies of all the original documents.

Also, and this is off the topic:

I have been unemployed for the past three because I was living overseas and my father-in-law was primarily supporting us both (husband and wife) there .

On my I-864, I would simply put zero's where ever there is income questions. I do have 50% equity in my house worth $170,000 in Atlanta. However, I have decided to not use assets since my Uncle is joint-sponsoring. Since I have not filed any returns for the past three years, I am submitting a notarized letter along with past three years of IRS publications page 17 that indicates who is required to file taxes with clearly showing minimum income amounts in the table. I am by the way including my 2008 tax transcript since that's the last one I filed before leaving for overseas along with my wife. ( My wife overstayed her Green card required stay limit)

I would just like to know if what I have mentioned sounds plausible explaination.

FYI,

My joint-sponsor is submitting all the required documentation with his I-864:

Photo copies of last three years with all the pertinent schedules ( Owns Business)

Business License with his name.
