You do you. But the officer adjudicating your case is not going to be the same one that did your AOS most likely, so will probably not know what this is about. Plus, some permanent residents don’t work and still get approved. That’s why they don’t even ask about employment history in the 751. Save that for the N400

 

IRS tax returns= way less paper

is this what it looks like? @Rocio0010 just print this for 2021?

Ok, then that is one of the evidences you are going to want to repeat. They want taxes from the start of your marriage. Same with bank accounts. 
If your window opens in January then that means you have until April to file. I’d file 2022 taxes early and wait until I have 2022 tax return transcript to send that too

And yes that’s the document to send

Ok, I see. You would still have time, but I understand why you want to submit next week too. As soon as you submit, and once you have your 2022 taxes in, go ahead and download the transcript. I sent my package last February, but as soon as I sent it I created a Google Folder labelled "in case we get RFE" and throw stuff like this in there.

Yep, that's the document you need to send for 2020 and 2021. 

For the most relevant documents (bank statements, leases, tax returns) I did from marriage date to submission.

I read very mixed reports on this, so went for whole of marriage, not solely since start of GC.

 

For the tax transcripts you want the top left documents from the screenshot you posted - labelled "Return Transcript". If you search this forum, a lot of this information (such as people's document lists) has been shared before.
