Hello, everything is on a case by case basis, so one thing that is true for one person may not apply to another. That said, I heard people had to wait a little longer because they did not include the most recent tax transcript. However, if you cannot access your returns for a legitimate reason, you can write a letter explaining your situation, and attach the 1040s to that letter. The consulate considers those letters in their assessments. I hope this is helpful.

To add: Just Google "consulate explanation letter" and you can find templates. Here's one I found for the Canadian consulate, you can just sub with your relevant information (e.g. replace ICU with case number, etc.).

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply! We'll include a letter as you suggest. It seems like we're doing everything we can. All we can do is hope now.  

Hello. They took the transcripts and 1099s from me. I’m not sure if it would create any problem during the interview, but It’s actually very easy to get transcripts from IRS website. You can create an account and download them in minutes. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply and suggestion!

I have an account, but when I try logging in, it keeps saying there's an error 😔 I'll call tomorrow to see if anything can be done.
