That's what we were thinking, Taylor!<BR/><BR/>The interview was March, 18th, which is before April, 15th.<BR/><BR/>But this is the USCIS (US Customs and Immigration Service) we're dealing with, so their wants and needs are pretty much whatever they feel like asking for.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00967364257656897151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4097293516411888153.post-72880892267830313782009-03-24T10:12:00.000-05:002009-03-24T10:12:00.000-05:002008!

Both are, in fact, needed.<BR/><BR/>And my sponsor included the past three years' tax records: 2005, 2006, 2007. Well, they want the 2008 one. That was a problem for the interview because as of early March, my sponsor hadn't filed yet.<BR/><BR/>The interviewer told Jackie that she/we shouldn't worry, everything is fixable.
