    Very informative video, Thank you. I have a question. I got a letter to begin submitting I864 to NVC. Now it is Jan. 30,2024, will my most recent tax return be 2022 ? Deadline to file for tax return 2023 is April 2024 but I haven't receive all needed documents to file for 2023.

      Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, our office can only provide free general advice since we do not want to create an attorney/client relationship with an individual that is not a client. This prevents us from assuming liability in the event that an individuals handle their cases incorrectly. You are more than welcome to schedule a paid consultation to receive case specific advice. Most likely, we will need to ask you additional questions to determine what documents you need or do not need for your case.

    • @maximus7618

      @realwinninglaw thank you for responding. I just want to know if the tax return 2022 is sufficient enough now until I file for my 2023 when I get my documents situated.

    • @realwinninglaw
      @realwinninglaw  Před 10 měsíci

      Unfortunately, they can do either 1 of 3 things: (1) Accept your case but deny it based on the missing I-864; (2) Accept your case and request the I-864; or (3) Reject your case. USCIS is not consistent when it decides what to do.
