I-864 question

[RickieAndEva 0]

I read in the instructions for the I864EZ that we are suppose to enclose 6 months of pay stubs. That seems like alot. I noticed people here are sending less than that. Please advise.

That is not how I read it:

You may include evidence supporting your claim about your expected income for the current year if you believe that submitting this evidence will help you establish ability to maintain sufficient income. You are not required to submit this evidence, however, unless specifically instructed to do so by a Government official. For example, you may include a recent letter from your employer, showing your employer's address and telephone number, and indicating your annual salary. You may also provide pay stub(s) showing your income for the previous six months. If your claimed income includes alimony, child support, dividend or interest income, or income from any other source, you may also include evidence of that income.

Note the words "for example" and "may" this means these things are optional.

I included the employer letter, and copies of a few recent pay stubs, not 6 months.

In addition to the required documents, I included the pay stubs of my last 3 pay periods and it was reviewed without a single issue. Be Well & Peace!

It's a personal choice, I included 6 months worth of pay stubs but you can send as little as one month. As long as you can prove that you are paid on a regular basis and mainly that you're employed, you should be ok.
