Old Marriage Certificate Required for Interview?

[Celie 793]

Okay, so I have everything ready for my fiance's interview but I have 2 questions: 

 

1. P3 in Beirut only asks for Divorce Certificate of previous marriages and I was going to send my old marriage certificate too, but I can't find it and San Diego is charging $50 dollars for 1 copy with expedite plus notary fees to send a notarized request which sounds CRAZY to me.

 

Does anyone know if it would be an issue if he only presents my divorce decree (certified) but not the marriage certificate?

 

2. Can I get away with using my tax returns downloaded from TaxAct, Tax Slayer etc. in conjunction with my W-2s, paystubs, and employment letter? Or do they usually kick things back and ask for tax transcript directly from the IRS?

We did not need my old marriage certificate for our interview.  We did need a copy of the divorce decree.

 

I recommend downloading your tax transcripts from the IRS.  All I had was my 1040 that I printed from TurboTax and I was fine but having the extra transcripts will buy you some peace of mind.  They can be downloaded here:

Thank you, John!

 

That's good to know!

 

I did request the transcripts but it's been 2 weeks and they haven't arrived yet and I'm pushing my time limit to send him the paperwork so I was just checking if it was absoluteeeely necessary or even if I could just email him copies of it when they arrive so I can go ahead and send him the package of paperwork. lol

You can't download them directly?  I know there are a few hoops to jump through to get there but it is worth it if you have the information requested.  They ask for a loan or a credit card listed to the SSN to confirm identity.  After that it is an instant download.

It didn't let me for some reason. 😕  I tried plugging in my auto loan account number and then tried my student loan account number and it kept saying it doesn't match my records lol but when I requested them online to be sent via mail, it didn't request the verification thing and let me order them.
