VJ timelines are just a guess based on what people input here. Not something to rely on or plan on.

Only the most recent tax return and W-2 are required at this time that is 2012. 2013 won't be required until after 15 April.
Your fiance will only need the 2012 tax return and W-2, embassy will not want the 2011 tax return and W-2 and most of the time will refuse to take it if your fiance tried to give it to them.

Yes what you're saying makes sense to me. But so does how I know I felt about the handing out of so much personal information.
For my own self, it wasn't my fiancee seeing the information, it was all the people it was getting handed off to that worried me. Embassy, CFO, other people in her house, etc... Also she didn't really understand what parts of the documents are dangerous if they get out in circulation. What we did is she had two copies of things. One set to show but not allow to be taken and another set they could have, which had things like the SS number blacked out. We talked about what was the sensitive documents and which were no big deal. She learned a lot, and I felt a lot more comfortable with her handling of them then. She actually hand carried back all the original and sensitive documents when she came here. The extra edited copies her family used as paper in the Philippines.
This is really a stressful time on both sides. Until he actually sees how you handle having that type of information in hand, its hard to trust until he know's you truly understand it. For you, you're taking it very personal that this reflects on his trust of you. For him its more likely he's worried who is going to have copies of this information, and even just a little burn out at feeling people are asking him to bend over, spread his cheeks and let the world have its way with him.
I trust my wife completely. But I also know she had a lot to learn about fraud and what type of information to keep safe. What she learned when all those documents were sent over, is just a fraction of what she's learned since she been in the USA. She never imagined there were so many different attempts going on to steal personal information from Americans. But for us Americans, this mostly comes as second nature because we're warned about it constantly and most of us have had cases of dealing directly with fraud.

If you'd like some unsolicited advice, stop with the blame game. I noticed my Filipina wife also is big on deciding who's to blame or at fault all the time to. If something doesn't work out or an argument starts there's the assumption someone should be to blame. This is actually rather destructive in a relationship, when you'd best place your efforts on finding solutions to a problem regardless of the fault. When you get caught in the blame game, you'll find yourself continuing to fight over something silly just to make sure you're not the one considered to blame. Its better to put your efforts on what feelings your partner had that lead to the conflict to begin with so you understand them better and can possibly avoid setting the same conflict off again.
As I mentioned, your fiance is probably feeling a bit upset at how much personal and private information he's being asked to hand over to complete strangers. Americans are taught some of the paperwork that is being asked for are things you never let anyone see. We're also taught that letting some of this stuff get out, can destroy us financially if it gets in the wrong hands. Which is very true actually. When we're asked for more and more of this, our defenses automatically start going up, and we start reacting by saying no or finding reasons why we need not give that information.
Just trying to give you a possible idea of why he doesn't want to hand over some of these financial documents. Be easy on him, its not easy for most Americans to hand over all that is being asked for by the embassy.

Do not waste time figuring out how USCIS screwed up. That does not solve the problem.
Since you have copies, just comply with the RFE and move on.

They do lose things! They also won't admit it and have your future in their hands.
Send them the new copies and move on.

1) A lawyer would be able to (advise you).
2) People are not commodities to be "sent back" if you don't like them.
