Should I have the new economic suponsor paper?

[Guest agl88]

I am applying CR1 and have a question about the economic suponsor paper.

 

Should I prepare the new economic suponsor paper during the interview? And, I will need to include the 2002 tax return to suport the suponsor paper.

 

Anyone has comment on this?

I think you are talking about the Affidavit of Support. Since you are applying for your spouse, you need to do the I-864 form (versus I-134 for fiancee K1 visa) with the last three years of your tax returns.

Tony is correct, you need an Affidavit of Support and last three years tax return.
