I-864 question--proof of employment

Hi--

I have a quick question. I am filing an I-485 on behalf of my wife who is a UK citizen. I'm a US citizen and an attorney who currently works freelance contract assignments through a few companies which provide me with my employment checks each week. Therefore, I don't have a 'yearly salary' per se that can easily be put in an employment letter.

I do have paystubs for the last several months that I can include in the I-864 packet. Additionally, I have my tax returns from the last 3 years which show I make well above poverty level.

Any suggestions on what I should do regarding proof of current employment? Will my paystubs suffice or do I definitely need that letter from an employer?

Thanks

Pay stubs should be fine as not everyone is able to get a letter from their employer.

Send a few latest pay stubs and you should be fine, as they too indicate current employment.
