Hi there all! 
A little background: My husband has been here on an H1B visa which was just accepted for renewal. I am a US citizen. We are applying for a Green Card for him now. I am a stay at home mom, so we used his income as part of mine basically on the I-864 (and filed the concurrent I-864a for him), but we accidentally forgot to include on 2016 taxes stuff and got a RFE on this.
So I am sending an updated and correct I-864 (with correct 2016 information), copies of 2016 tax return where we filed jointly (like I said, I have no income, but we got married in 2016), copy of his 2016 W2, his work authorization, and a letter from his work confirming his current working status/job/income and their assurance that it will continue so after he becomes a permanent resident. Is there anything we're missing?
Also, on the I-864, Part 6 19a,b, and c it asks for Sponsor Income reported by my tax returns for the last three years - do I include my husband's income on the "Total Income" box for the most recent year, since we filed together and are married? I know for 2015 and 2014 I put my actual income for those years, since we weren't married. Just need clarification on this one part.
Thank you so much!
