I-864 wife (sponsor), started new job in Jan 15' no tax return K-1

[TrufflePiggy 3]

Hello VJ,

I (The benificiary) am applying for adjustment of status now that I am married to my wife (Sponsor/Petitioner). She started her job Jan 2015 so she doesn't have any tax returns to show.

Under Part 6 of I-864: under 18a and the next few questions until Part 7 What should I put? I was thinking something like "See attached documents, (and add the sallary information we can provide to do with her employment). Should I leave the boxes blank?

On the I-134 we put a letter from her employer of the date she started, what she makes annually etc, as well as a few pay stubs.

Any help much appeciated.

Sections 18, 19, 20 are strictly related to federal tax returns and not about how much one is earning currently. If your wife has not filed tax returns previously then Check "NO" on 18a, leave others blank and Check 20.

Your wife will still include copies of her employment letter and several paystubs to verity the current annual income entered in Section 2 of Part 6.

Hi there, similar to this case, my husband started working last year June and filed for tax for half a year in 2014. Does he check Yes or No for 18a? And as for 20, does he need to check it even though he filed on 2014? Thanks in advance
