RFE (Request for evidence) - I485

[vamsi115]

Hi,
I received a letter from USCIS today requesting the below document(s)

-> The beneficiary on form i-864, affidavit of support must submit a complete federal income tax return submitted to the IRS for the most recent tax year (2016).

I am the beneficiary and I submitted my W2 as a supporting document with my I-864 (But i mentioned it wrong as 1099 in cover letter). I have couple questions,

1) Is that about my W2 document or 1040 form? ( I submitted W2 with I-864 and not with I-485)

2) Is it related to I-864 or I-485 ? ( I mentioned myself as the co-sponsor in I-864 and my wife is the sponsor )


Please advice.

EDIT: Do you have kids? if you do then you as a beneficiary and co-sponsor you need to submit I864A.

Thanks for the reply. Maybe because I am co-sponsor in I-864. No, I don't have any kids.

I do not remember that I submitted my tax forms from 2015, 2016 and 2017. But for I-864, we did include my annual income. I have not received any RFEs. For the interview, we both will bring our pay stubs.

I searched the instruction if the sponsor's income is over 125% poverty line I did not find anything that states beneficiary should submit any tax forms too. Thank god I was freaking out.

Thank you. I did not expect it too. My wife did not work for 9 months in 2016 so I added myself as a co-sponsor since my income is higher than the required and we are living together from an year already. I think they are asking for 1040 since i already sent W2. I hope this RFE doesn't make the GC process late.

I belive we sent both the 1040 and w2.

I belive we sent both the 1040 and w2.

Thank you. So, you saying it's better to send both! Probably. I will.
