I submitted last 3 years tax return. My last year had a business loss so the income is effectively 0. I used my assets to make up for it.

my 2016 income is 60K but I only submitted last 3 paystubs April/May/Jun.

I just asked my accountant to provide 3 more paystub (July/Aug/Sep). The total of the last 6 paystubs is 60K. That should meet the requirement, don't you think?

Or do you think I should still get a co-sponsor?

the last two years of income just to see if you're steady with your income but the third / newest tax is the most important

the last two years of income just to see if you're steady with your income but the third / newest tax is the most important

2013, 2014 make >100K

2015 has a loss so basically 0 income

2016 make 60K at end of Sept.

I'm self employed and pay my own salary.

I have assets that >$100K

I do not want to look for help from another co-sponsor if I can show that I make more than the poverty line.

It seems to me USCIS wants me to get a co-sponsor since it's easier for them.

I believe 2016 pay tubs do not count. It just make your evident a little stronger. They mostly rely on the 2015 tax return. Last year I was full time student with less than 10k. But I'm working full time now after graduate. I sent them the offer letter + pay tubs since January + my parents I864 + my I864. That is why everything went through.

I think It is relevant because it concerns our national security, with everything that is happening around us, the last thing we want to hear is another set of undocumented immigrants causing chaos and fear.

The article states: They approved immigrants from countries of concern to national security or with high rates of immigration fraud who had pending deportation orders.
