At What Point in the Year are Tax Returns Required?

[santoki 2]

Let's say you apply in November and are approved in April of the following year. When you send your documents to NVC, would they require the tax transcript for that year?

Or, if your interview were to be in Feb/March, do they require that current year return?

 

Just curious to see what's expected at either stage in regards to current year tax returns. 

Thanks!

I would think that if NVC requests them and you send them before April 15, the 2017 taxes are the latest taxes.  I do not believe you are required to file before they are due.  Of course, if they help you why not?
