I sent in on business stationary my income information for 2017 from my employer signed by him. 

 

I got an RFE saying no evidence was submitted as proof of current income. 

 

They list proper proof of income and say "such evidence should include:

 

- pay stubs or other documentation of pay for the previous 6 months.

- evidence of other income, such as tax-exempt interest, qualified dividends, irá distributions, pension, annuities, and social security benefits 

 

letter of employment containing the following:

-dates of employment

-nature of the job

-yearly salary earned

-number of hours per week worked

-prospects for future employment and advancement"

 

 

Do I have to get together my paycheck stubs for 6 months or can I just have my employer write up a letter again?

Where are these instructions from and which version of the i864 did you do?

Just want to be sure before I reply.

The instructions are from the RFE received today in the mail. 

 

I did the i864 and sent in 3 years worth of IRS taxes plus the employment letter. Due to traveling with my husband (then fiance) I didn't make the income cutoff of 2016 or 2014 so I sent in the form for my household member (my mother) to make her funds available if need be (i864a I believe it was) and we sent in most current year of tax returns plus her employment letter. I do make the 125% this year and made it in 2015. 

 

Thanks!

Thanks! 

 

Is your mother a joint sponsor?  To my knowledge they rally just care about the most recent year income.  Personally, I would follow and send in the information they asked for in the RFE.  Maybe you can check with your boss, or you company payroll to see if they can give you a summary of your last six months of pay otherwise I would send in the pay stubs.

 

Good Luck!

I don't know that this year counts if you don't have a return for it yet.

 

The best thing to do is send what they asked for as mentioned. They don't always make sense.

 

You can try calling and speaking with them to see if you can get anymore info
