I didn't say a thing about paying taxes.  I said file the federal tax return.  State tax returns are irrelevant to the I-864.  Words mean thing.  No need for "other words".  I meant exactly what I said.

Hello. My father has two businesses and he already filed for business tax extension for 2021. However, he still hasn't filed for individual tax extension for 2021 yet. Also, my father is my joint sponsor. I included the extension and tax returns from previous years with a statement explaining that tax returns for 2021 haven't been filed yet and attached the business extensions. My question is: Should I wait until my dad file his individual tax extension to submit the i864 so that i can attach the individual extension with the i864 or would the business tax extensions be enough with his statement? Thank you

Your father's income will come from his personal tax return, if he is "self employed".  If he is an employee of a company he owns, then past income for the tax section still comes from "total income" line of his personal tax return, and current income comes from a current pay stub.  The real answer depends on a number of details you have not disclosed, such as whether his businesses are sole proprietor or LLC etc.

NVC wants the tax returns not the extension

extension does not verify income
