Anyone had success filing an AOS without a tax return for the most recently ended year? I have filed an extension for 2012 (i.e. my tax returns are due by October 15, 2012) - and would rather not rush them as they are complicated. I will provide W-2s for 2012, pay stubs for 2013 and an employment letter.

Please let me know if anyone has completed a case with an extension.

Thanks!

I didn't want to take a chance - so I filed 'married filing separately' and took all of the hits that came with that status. I filed the day before (or the same day?) I sent in the AOS. My AOS was accepted.
