  • RFE for Tax Transcripts and W2s - Newark Filer EB2 (MSC)

    PD: 12/13/2019

    Guys today I received an RFE asking me the proof for my payment of Federal taxes for years 2016 to 2018, along with my W2s. I was going to send the Return Transcripts that we get on the IRS's website online but I remembered that in one of the years I mistakenly claimed the American Opportunity Tax credit using the H&R block's online application. I realized later that month that I incorrectly claimed this credit, so I prepared and filed an amended return and returned the money IRS paid me for the credit.

    Now on the IRS website, there are a few types of Tax return transcripts available, the simple "Return Transcript" states that I received this refund as this transcript only has information of initial tax filing, whereas the "Account Transcript" is a summary and shows that I returned the money and when. I did the right thing at the end and filed an amendment to return the money but now I am afraid that this mistake might pose a hindrance to my i-485 approval (God Forbid).

    Please let me know what is the purpose of USCIS asking for proof of Federal Tax filing? Should I be worried and since I don't want to hide anything as I corrected my returns, what form of transcripts or transcripts should I send to USCIS???

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Just be honest with the information with them.

      You should treat this no differently than other mistakes made on an 1040 filing which was later corrected using an amended return.
      In addition to the IRS transcript, I would include a copy of the initial return and amended copy. Include a letter on why you filed an amended return
