First answer this:

1. Does your sister earn enough on her own to sponsor her household plus your wife according to the financial poverty guidelines (you would check the gross income on her W2 to determine that)?

2. If not is your sister in law's husband willing to be financially responsible for your wife along with your sister in law for the ten year obligation?

One fills out the I-864. The other fills out an I-864A. It's common for them to ask for an I-864A from a spouse when filed jointly.

The first joint sponsor would fill out an I864 in their name (let's say the husband) and then there is a section on it to fill in for the wife's income and her contribution to the household income. The first joint sponsor would provide the complete joint tax return (all pages and schedules) and W2's for both joint sponsors OR simply a joint IRS Transcript. PLUS all other required documents required for a joint sponsor outlined in the I864 instructions for joint sponsors.

The second joint sponsor would have to fill out an I864A (this would be for the wife of you chose to do it that way).  The second joint sponsor would provide the complete joint tax return (all pagrs and schedules) and W2's for both joint sponsors OR simply a joint IRS Transcript.

An Employment verification letter and 6 months of paystubs are optional but it may be worth it in instances where your income has increased since the most recent taxes filed, or to prove stability in cases where your employment income was inconsistent.

Neither are a requirement but if they help, then I say why not. Just dont use them as a replacement for anything that is required ie on the list.

Just as a note, there are 3 separate financial items that must be demonstrated with the I-864 (let alone overcoming the actual public charge concern):

1) Current income (and/or comparable assets) that meets or exceeds the 125% FPL income level. Current income for an employee would be demonstrated via paystubs and/or an employment letter.

2) A copy of at least the most recent year's federal income tax return. Other years are optional.

3) Having filed taxes for at least the past 3 years, or a reason as to why one was not required to file them for any of those years.

 

The CO then makes a decision on the public charge concern based upon the totality of the circumstances.

Note that tax returns only demonstrate past income for an employee (i.e. if I was laid off, my current income is $0 even if I earned income last year).
