US Immigration from India

Have you EVER not filed a federal, state, or local tax return since you became a lawful permanent resident?

I got visa (I551) in November 2014, travelled to US in December 2014. Got my GC in December 2014
And went back to home country in January 2015
returned to US in June2015, Applied and got SSN# in July 2015, could not find a Job in US for the next 8 months or so. Means no income in 2015.

I got job in Mid 2016 so I started filing Taxes from 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019.

I had filed a backdated return 1040 form for year 2015, 0 earnings from any source and post mailed it to the IRS (as we cannot do back dated 1040 online). And I guess I cannot file for 2014 as I did not had SSN# at that time and it was just few days left in December in 2014.

Should I select NO to that question now ?

Was the backed No income 2015 returns correct thing to do ?

Do I need to do a backdated no income return in 2014 aswell ?

Hi all,

In previous topic I was asking about I 130 file for mother,sorry I mentioned visitor visa.

How do they calculate annual income?Is it before Tax or after Tax?

Ok so I went to indian embassy website and they have redirected OCI application to VFS Global website. Except the website link shows error. (Check the screeshot)

Has any one started OCI & Renunciation process with VFS Global ? If so please guide me to the appropriate link. Thanks!
