DS-260 "Have you ever been refused a US visa..."

After we got engaged my wife applied for a B1 visa and was denied. She was honest and said she wanted to visit for 3 weeks to meet my family. Officer quickly denied the visa request and told her to file K1.

Fast forward to being at NVC for our CR1 visa and The DS-260 asks "Have you ever been refused a US visa....?" to which she answered "yes"

Per the instruction for the Bangkok Embassy, for the interview you must bring, among other things:

Immigration Records (If any): Applicants who have been denied admission to the United States, ...must submit all relevant documentation."

First, I don't believe being "denied admission" is the same as a "refused a visa" but I want to clarify. Second, if the two are synonymous, for relevant documentation, I don't recall her getting anything from that refusal that we could bring to the interview.

Thailand specific civil docs to submit with DS-260

Wanting to confirm I am uploading all the required civil documents for Thailand with my wife's DS-260 so we can hopefully avoid an RFE.

Instructions on CEAC page where I upload files says:

"Your country of origin and/or the U.S Embassy or Consulate you are visiting may require that you upload additional documents for review. You will be able to find country specific documents in the Where to obtain documents link"

When I click the link, it takes me to this site where I can select Thailand which only lists reciprocity and documents for non-immigrant visas.

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country.html

Per the document upload page on CEAC's site, she is required to upload, and we have uploaded:

1. Passport bio page

2. Passport photos

3. Birth Certificate (along with translated version)

4. Marriage Certificate (and translated version)

5. Myanmar Police Certificate (and translated version)

6. Thai Police Certificate which they supplied in English which is accepted by the embassy

I also read here

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-5-collect-financial-evidence-and-other-supporting-documents/step-7-collect-civil-documents.html

That I need to upload copies of my final divorce decree which I uploaded under "other documents" on CEAC, but this isn't Thailand-specific.

Am I missing any additional civil documents required by Thailand specifically for CR1 immigrant visa?

Getting ready to submit my I-485 submission and didn't notice any thing pertaining to the Bio metrics (G-325A) and I went through this process back in 2007 and remember a page giving Social Security permission to share info signed by me.

Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this topic.

I-864 tax question (Merged)

On Part 6 Sponsor's Employment and Income, questions 24a, 24b, and 24c ask for my AGI for the current year and past 2 years' tax returns.

I sold my business in 2016, worked for the acquiring company for 4 1/2 years and in November 2020 embarked on a what I planned as a 3 year sabbatical from corporate America. At the time I was married to my ex. We filed Married Filing Jointly for 2021 and 2022 during which time I had no income; however, my ex wife's income was reported on our taxes for 2021, 2022. Do I report the AGI from the 1040 for 2021 and 2022 even though all the "income" was produced by the ex? Or do I report $0 since none of the income was mine? Since I am filing an AOS, I would think that only MY income would count.
