I864

[Dishman 0]

Hello, im only 21 so I only have 2 tax returns including this years. Its very specific in asking for three. Will they deny my I 864 regardless of my income level if I only have 2 tax returns. I definetly meet the poverty guidelines

The I-864 instructions state :

You must provide either an IRS transcript or a photocopy from your own records of your Federal individual income

tax return for the most recent tax year. If you believe additional returns may help you to establish your ability to

maintain sufficient income, you may submit transcripts or photocopies of your Federal individual income tax returns

for the three most recent years.

The most recent would be 2012 taxes . As of April 15th 2014 they would seek 2013 taxes . If you did not file for a certain year they require a written letter of explanation for the reason you did not file . They only require the most recent and most people like the instructions state do this to provide extra proof to a steady income .

Not sure if you found this or not , but there are instructions on a separate download . You can find them on the same page as the I-864 download . They are pretty good and go into detail on how to fill out the I-864 . I have been reading them recently since i am near this stage .

Are you sure? I have to file my I-864 now too, and I'm wondering if they'll want the 2013 tax info. The 2013 tax year is already complete - you can file your taxes now if you want. April 15 is just the deadline.
