If the taxes (latest) that were attached to the I-864 form were filed as Married Filing Jointly, then yes, you need to upload W2s of the sponsor to show they meet the income limits  on their own (meaning spouse income is not included in meeting the minimum requirement).

If not, you should be fine

That is exactly what I did and we were DQ with no issues

We did not upload W2 with our I-864 AoS package

Anyone concerned they might start asking for taxes (or a letter explaining lack of taxes) after April 15th? I submitted a few days before tax season started and should get DQ'd a few days after it ends so I'm hoping we don't get an inexperienced NVC reviewer pulling something weird due to our lack of 2021 taxes.

Is this normal? When I submitted everything document it didn’t have the “add sponsor or house hold member.”

How long since you submitted your documents?

Submitted all docs on Jan 21st. We're estimating DQ on April 19th according to current processing times.

We uploaded and submitted 2021 tax returns and 1099s as additional documents just in case, hopefully they won’t reset our process. Our first submit date is January 19th, additional documents submitted on March 25th. It would be awful if we have to wait 3 more months just because of this.

It is normal. Those are for you to add additional house hold members or joint sponsor(s) if you have. Nothing to worry about.

We're debating doing the same.

Take a look at this thread. There are some people that done it without having any trouble.

Did you also upload a new I-864 to change your 3 most recent tax years from "2020, 2019, 2018" to "2021, 2020, and 2019"?

No, we didn’t touch I-864 since it is a main document, thinking it might reset the process. Just uploaded tax return etc as additional documents.
