I think you need to provide W2s if you supply tax return. The easier solution is getting your tax return transcript (assuming your return has been processed) free online from the IRS and then you don't need to provide all the additional files. But either way works as I understand!

Is there a reason why you include the Passport pages for both you and the petitioner? Isn't the birth certificate for the petitioner sufficient?
