affidavit of support

[JP87 1]

Hey everyone,

I have reached the part in the affidavit of support where I need to send photocopies of my tax returns, w2s, and form 1099s. Since I am currently in Japan and unable to locate my 2016 and 2015 tax returns, I figured I would use the irs website to gain tax return transcripts. However, I do not have a usa cell phone number so I cannot register online to get the information quickly. Using the information from the I-864EZ instructions, it informed me to use form 4506-T to get my tax transcripts (https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506t.pdf). 

 

However, I do not know what to put for item 6 (transcript requested). The examples provided are 1040, 1065, 1120, etc. Beneath this item, it has listed return transcript, account transcript, and record of account. I am not sure what to list for the transcript type requested and which transcript i need. Has anyone else chosen to do the irs tax transcripts? Any information would be appreciated.

 

Also for the year or period requested, it says to list the ending date for the period requested by the month, day, year. What would be the 2017, 2016, and 2015 tax returns be listed as by this category? I was thinking 1/1/2018, 1/1/2017, and 1/1/2016. 

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

Do I put in the blank form 1040 for transcript requested and then select return transcript underneath that option?

Yes.
