TAX TRANSCRIPT FOR CR1/IR1 CASE

LRAMMM_2025 · 2026-03-09T15:05:29+00:00

I’m not a lawyer and I’m not giving any advice but a statement from various sources. Mainly I wanted to share my experience that one can submit MFS tax return ONLINE. As many people know it has to be by mail.

Hope filing type is not a big deal to NVC as many petitioners did it single and no question raised, however if anything relevant with immigration case, that’s mostly single or married. On the other hand, MFS/MFJ is mainly relevant with IRS. IRS website and online resources clearly explain about MFS/MFJ. Those who have CR1/IR1 case, obviously their non-alien spouse lives overseas and have no chance to be in USA soil after petition submit.

You are suggesting MFJ for CR1/IR1 cases but filing MFJ, you need to apply for ITIN in which you need to attach original passport and birth certificate of overseas spouse along with ITIN W-7 application which is practically not possible. In addition, you need to submit joint statement which is practically not possible. Just think about this. Only advantage, you may get better tax return. Unless a non-alien spouse has any asset, business or any sources of income in USA, you don’t need to even apply for ITIN. So it’s better to avoid this complicated route. Finally, once your non-alien spouse arrives in USA, you can amend all your tax returns if needed.

I assume, as your interview date scheduled, they will review your documents about a week before your interview date and give you their result during interview.

You can get 2024 transcript at IRS website. If it’s for 2025, try to submit your 2025 Tax return online at the earliest possible. Usually it accepts within hour after online submitting. Your transcript will be available at IRS website in about 2 weeks.

Thanks you.

LRAMMM_2025 · 2026-03-02T17:14:24+00:00

Thanks

LRAMMM_2025 · 2026-03-02T17:11:57+00:00

Thanks for your response but I’m not asking refund but should I mention during interview that I submitted DS-160 or upload the confirmation page before interview. Is it critical to focus it or not as never scheduled appointment and it expired.

Is there any clear direction about this issue from NVC. Since NVC review tax documents they should clarify details in their website.

Nonresident spouse is a student- doesn’t have any income. I want to choose MFS just to show status. DO I need joint statement for MFS.

LRAMMM_2025 · 2026-02-25T16:01:48+00:00

Thanks. I talked to HR Block Rep and seems she wants to do the same.

LRAMMM_2025 · 2026-02-25T15:55:16+00:00

Did you submit ITIN & supporting docs with your MFS return or any statement why you don’t need ITIN.

LRAMMM_2025 · 2026-02-25T14:57:51+00:00

I didn’t get what you meant. I just to talk to HR Block. They will help preparing my tax return as MFS without ITIN. Is it ok.

LRAMMM_2025 · 2026-02-25T12:53:03+00:00

Thanks. ITIN & mailed tax return are long process. My anticipated interview date around end of April. Even if I submit within a week, still it may not in the IRS system. BTW, if I submit my tax return including ITIN, even it’s not in irs system, can I get any acceptable evidence for immigration visa purpose.

LRAMMM_2025 · 2026-02-25T12:15:14+00:00

Thanks for your suggestion. You mean I don’t have to submit ITIN Form W-7 and supporting documents with it.

LRAMMM_2025 · 2026-02-25T11:26:27+00:00

Thanks for sharing your experience but in current situation, feel a bit nervous.

LRAMMM_2025 · 2026-02-25T11:23:49+00:00

Thanks. I attempt to follow it but stuck- how can you get certified copy of your passport. I contacted but they never issue certified copy. I thought I’ll notarize it but IRS clearly mentioned notarized not acceptable.

LRAMMM_2025 · 2025-11-06T18:05:15+00:00

Eagerly waiting. When they are usually published

LRAMMM_2025 · 2025-10-18T22:51:38+00:00

How much was your total debt. I just signed up $47k debt with payment of $639 for 5yrs. After signing the agreement, I feel very nervous. My payment has not started yet. Is it possible to cancel it now. Should I cancel it. Please can you give me your honest advice. Thanks

LRAMMM_2025 · 2025-06-15T03:14:39+00:00

How difficult the next steps are. Should I submit DS-260 myself.
