He needs to fill out an I-864 for each person he will be joint sponsoring. If that's both parents, then 1 I-864 for each.

The wife would generally provide an I-864A for each I-864.

The IRS transcript covers the required tax return copy part of things. The W-2 is optional, but I have seen at least 1 report of it being requested recently. That said, unless the income is via self-employment, current income is determined by pay stubs and/or an employment letter (taxes would only show past income). So thoose should be incluced too.

So I’ll put the total income from the transcript which is both of their income?

For question #24 where it asks about the tax returns, you copy the number from the 1040 exactly.
