They prefer tax transcripts. If you use tax returns you need to send every page of the return & every related document. Use IRS site to get free transcripts by mail, fax or in person from IRS office.

There is no preference. Either is acceptable. Transcripts are easier for the applicant sometimes or in case you have lost something. There is no "preference" though.
