Hey, does the Co-Sponsor need to provide bank statements and if yes, will it be 1 document for each month in 2020? I'll be using my friend as he makes enough. Just want to know what else I need from him besides his tax returns.
Thanks.

If he is not self-employed, then he would just need most recent tax transcript(or a copy of tax return with all forms, attachments and W-2), 6 months of paystubs(probably only most recent needed if it shows YTD income) and/or letter from employer. Bank statements would only be needed if you were using assets and needed to prove savings in the bank, or perhaps if they do not have paystubs and wanted to show their paycheck deposits each month(but most everyone has paystubs). He will also need to provide proof of being a USC or LPR.

 

If self-employed, then most recent complete tax return with all forms, schedules, attachments, and 1099s. "Total Income" from most recent tax return will be the current annual income amount to use for self-employed.

He makes more than enough to be our Co-Sponsor. He is employed. Works for a window company. I got his taxes, but just thought to myself if he also needs to show his bank statements for the AOS. I see he doesn't since he makes enough, thanks.
Will I still need to ask him to provide 6 months of paystubs anyway? It's required for the AOS?

Not required, but you want to prove his income without having to worry about them asking you for anything else at the interview. Most recent tax transcript should do it if well above, but certainly won't hurt (only help your case) to include at least most recent paystub. If it shows his YTD income, one is all it would take.
