Only the petitioner has to prove income. They do not care how much money the beneficiary makes. Whoever is the Sponsor must supply the proof of income only.

I am assuming that your wife is the petitioner. If that is the case, I think that recent pay stubs should be included with I864. They are not required but I would rather have too much information than too little information.

Yes, I agree with you. I am sure that hanout's wife is his petitioner.

send pay stubs. I got RFE'd because I didn't send them. I sent a 6 month contract instead which you'd think is better proof of current employment than a monthly paystub but apparently it wasn't good enough.

Well, I can see that with just a contract letter they can assume that it could be a fake. With pay stubs you can tell how much you make with taxes and all.

And I agree, the petitioner should send recent pay stubs just to be sure, even though they're optional.

hanout,

The instructions say that pay stubs are optional.

People who have not provided pay stubs have received RFEs asking for pay stubs.

In summary - pay stubs are optional until specifically asked for, then they become necessary.

Your wife should send her paystubs with I-864 packet. They will be helpful.

I've been following Hanout's posts about his wife's income, so his questions about "required" concern me.

Hanout, your wife must offer supporting documentation to prove the stated current income is correct. Since her 2006 income is not sufficient, the only way she can qualify as the sole sponsor is if an annualization of her current income is sufficient. The only practical evidence she can offer is pay stubs. So, in your case, the pay stubs are going to be required, even though they may be optional for others.

Yes, I have been reading Hanout's posts and replying them as well. This is what Hanout needs to do:

Have his wife (the US Citizen petitioner) get a co sponsor and have his wife send her pay stubs with the I-864 packet.

even if you require a co-sponsor include the pay stubs. I don't think that my RFE was becasue the contract was suspected fake, but that the people at NVC that look through the supporting documents are so used to paystubs that they consider them required.

I suspect they didn't accept the contract because it doesn't confirm you are actually employed. The pay stubs do.
