About to send off AOS paperwork. For i-864, I did not work 2011 and 2012. 2013 I went back to work a partial year and my 2013 tax transcript is short of income by a few grand to meet the i-864P thresholds.

For 2014, I have a letter from my employer showing I recently received a raise as of May 2014, and the letter states my new annual salary as of May 2014 which does (barely) meet the I-864P guidelines. I also have paycheck stubs showing I am working, but they have my wage before my raise, which would still leave me short for the I-864P requirements by about $500.00. I have one paycheck stub with my raise, which when calculated annually, shows I do meet the I-864P requirements.

I do have assets I could list - cash savings account with $10,000 and a number of retirement accounts.

Should I go ahead and list the assets and send in the documentation just to be on the safe side?

Can retirement accounts be used as assets?

Thank you for any help you can provide.
