B2 visa sponsorship document

[Aishwarya R]

Hi, we are trying to get a tourist visa for parents and we would be sponsoring the trip. Tax returns/W2 was listed in the documents that should be presented. Actually we came to US just 3 and half months before, Dec 2014. Hence we cannot file a tax, as there is no W2 available for last year. So what should we do now? Interview is in couple of weeks.

possibly write a letter explaining why weren't you required to file or why you didn't file.

Tax returns are not a requirement. The only reason they are relevant is if the consular officer requires proof of your income in the event you are funding the visit. You can have them carry your past 3 months pay slips, a statement from your bank showing the current balance, and a letter from your company stating your employment and salary.
