Just being curious here.... Please to anyone who has submitted an AOS recently. DO you use your 2013 TAX transcripts. I've not file my taxes yet, just wondering submitting transcripts 2012, 2011 and 2010, and three pay stubs for January, February and March single I get paid monthly could delay my petition.

Must I submit tax transcripts for 2013.

Please if there's a link with the answer, just direct me to it.

Thank you

Even if you don't file, you'll have to get a receipt of extension TO file later (and that extension only buys you 6 months at most).

You will submit that IRS receipt of extension along with 2010, 2011 and 2012 returns or transcripts and indicate that on the i-864 forms.

They will not issue your spouse a visa until they see your completed 2013 return - just keep that in mind.

~~~

It is really easier if you file on time and give the NVC your 2013 return/transcript

~~~

To prove your current income, the paystubs you mentioned and the job offer letter should suffice

The paystubs attest to your current income.

Your 2013 return is considered last year's income.

Two different things.

As I said in my last response, if you combine income, then it's a co-sponsor. But, I believe to be a co-sponsor, they need to live in the same household as the petitioner (re: the co-sponsor would fill out an I-864A).

Yes my husband and my uncle lives in same house.

Question on joint sponsor. I am a student and my husband is the one working. We've always file taxes jointly. However, I am petitioning for my mother, hence have to use my spouse income for AOS. I know I can fill I-864 and my spouse completes I-864A. My only concern is how will he report two AOS that were previously issued for individuals who are still permanent residents. Could not locate this on I -864A. Part 5 line 6 on I-864 has the question regarding previous AOS.

My question is will it be a problem if we just submit two I-864 or I should report the numbers on I-864.

Please can someone guide me on this.

I read the first two posts for this forum but could not locate an appropriate answer. Could've missed it, hence feel free to direct me.

Thank you

A certified copy is a copy from the issuer. It is not a notarized copy. For example.... I had an unreadable birth certificate. I had to order a new one from Vital Statistics in British Columbia, Canada because they issued the original. The new one I ordered is called a certified copy because it is from the original issuer.

Thanks for the reply. I wanted to know if there was an easy way out where I could go one place and get all copies made there which are acceptable by the NVC, but doesn't seem like it is going to be that easy. So as of now I can either send all originals to NVC with the probability that they MAY get lost and I will then have to go 3-4 offices to different parts of the city to apply for new ones OR I can do that now and send in certified copies. My question still remains that if I send in certified copies, do I have to carry originals to the interview?

If I didn't file tax this year can I submit 2012 tax return for the aos package? Do I have to give them anything for this year? Are they ask why I didn't give this year tax (2013)?

I just read post 2, didn't see the above question...

"

Keep in mind though: if you submit 2012 tax information as the most recent year and then your interview is scheduled after April 14th, 2013 tax information WILL be required at the interview."

2013 tax info will be required for the beneficiary's interview????????

If it's after April 15, 2014 it is possible that the 2013 tax information and an updated I-864 will be required at interview.

I am not in the NVC stage yet, but I am thinking I might be within the next two months. Our petition was just transfered. My question is, is there an exporation date that the papers come from my husband over seas can have. I thought I read somewhere the paperwork can not be dated more than two months old.

I want my husband to start gathering all of the paperwprk because he will have to travel a bit to get it. And I want to be able to send the paperwork NVC needs as soon as they ask for it.

Thank you

co sponsor or joint sponsor

i got confused around reading its a 2 different thing.

husband is way way short to support a family of 5, so i asked my aunt to be a joint sponsor. now as i read here, theres a co sponsor, meaning in the same household. husband sister is willing to be a co sponsor, now my question is,

  • she is goin to fill i864a right?
  • their mom and 1 daughter is dependent in sisters 1040, but they will not be counted in household size right.
  • so it'll be 6 total household member
  • they just have to add their annual income and check the poverty guidelines if it fits for 6, is that right? example 28915 + 30000= 58915 poverty guideline for 6 =39962.

did i get it right?

our joint sponsor is still on vacation, we wanted to send in the AOS if this fits

Not sure. I know for Canada, a fingerprint check is only needed if you've been convicted, but I don't know if it's the same for Australia.

Can anyone tell me if my husband has to do the fingerprint police check or just the name one? I've looked at the country specific documents but haven't seen anywhere it said which one.

Hi There,

I studied abroad in Australia and had the same question.. So I contacted the local US consulate here asked for their advice. They contacted the Embassy in Sydney and a name check only is good enough, but I'm NOT an Australian citizen. This website might give you some additional info: http://canberra.usembassy.gov/obtain_police_cert.html. My advice: check with your local US embassy, because these things change and they don't know it all either.

Cheers
