I am not sure if 'HELP!!!' is desperation or commanding tongue.png How many do we get for people posting on a thread 2+ years old? (ok, I will be good and stop posting off-topic stuff in this thread now)

Do people usually include an employer letter AND pay stubs, or just one or the other?

And does anyone have any idea whether a document produced through a third-party verification service like http://www.theworknumber.com/ is as good as an actual letter from the employer?

Thanks!

2016-11-01: Filed I-751 again, this time with payment check instead of fee waiver request (sent Priority Express)

2016-11-03: Date on I-797 Notice of Action (received 11/7)

2016-11-09: USCIS mailed out denial of our original fee waiver request, with denial letter dated 2016-11-02

2018-03-07: Notice that our April 12 interviewed had been "canceled" (pending rescheduling, but the letter didn't actually say that; officer at InfoPass later explained that interviews aren't scheduled until five or six weeks before the interview date, so they were waiting until closer to our requested rescheduling window)

We only included pay stubs simply because they also stated what his yearly income was. Neither are required, but they're both good things to have to prove current income.

Is there any reason not to just include the pay stubs and forget about the letter, since the pay stubs have the key information anyway?

Essentially that's what we did. Because the pay stubs had all the information, we didn't bother with a letter of employment.

Got it. Anyone else have anything to say about this? Do pay stubs make the employer letter unnecessary?

Yes. You can send both or one or the other. If the pay stubs have all the information on them, especially if they have YTD income and hourly pay listed, then they will work on their own for proof of current income.
