i-864ez help

[JayMain626 21]

Hi guys I have a couple more questions about the 864 EZ

On the residence address if other than mailing do people normally put N/A?

And current income do people generally put what they made last year as its April or is it a rough estimate or monthly total?

also my wife has got an new job starting in may should we put her new employer down as a second employer??

this is confusing as usual!! :-/

As far as the second employer goes--- it should be her employer on the date she signs the form. It is not accurate to say I am employed by X unless you wait until May to do the form. If she has enough income with job #1, then it doesn't matter if she adds job #2.

Current income is what she makes today, carried out to a year. But you need to have a way to prove that income if the last tax return doesn't reflect it.

For example:

John smith was in school and only started his job of $2000/mo in October 2014. His tax return only shows 3 months of salary (3x$2000) $6000. For his "current income" on the form, he calculates his yearly salary (12x$2000) $24,000. He submits an employer letter stating he makes $24,000 year or he submits six months of paystubs that show $2000/mo.

thank you

so just to clarify if the current annual income matches around what the tax returns say we should not have an issue?

You shouldn't have an issue as long as it is over the threshold and the tax return shows over the threshold. Some people stay about the same. Sounds like yours is one of those and all is good.

But for people who had an insufficient tax return but now make more, got a new job, got a raise making current much better than 2014, they still can pass by proving that new income with additional proofs.

I put the same address for both

your current income is your base salary you make before taxes. Your tax return might have slightly more or less income as overtime pay, sick or vacation paid or bonuses are usually not counted toward base salary

for most people to figure out current income it is wage per hour x 40 hours x 52 weeks. then send in pay checks stubs or employee letter stating that is your base salary. you will still have to include copy of tax transcript or tax return with w-2 but again that total income could be different then your base current income

also, the amount you enter is the ADJUSTED gross income. its really easy to get your tax transcripts via the IRS website. http://www.irs.gov.

i submitted the EZ for my husband and just to be safe i included my tax transcripts from 2012, 2013, & 2014.

It is not necessarily the adjusted gross income.

you use the adjusted gross income if you filed a 1040EZ or the total income if you filed a 1040. It's not based on the I-864 type you file, but the tax return that you file.

[j&ana 363]

NLR is correct you only use adjusted gross income if you file a 1040ez tax form

I use the I-864ez form but since i flie 1040 forms i had to put total gross income for the amount for the past 3 tax years
