I have no idea (The USCIS has a mind of its own), however I'll tell you what an expert told me; You must submit proof of whatever you list on a US government affidavit.
We pretty much submitted proof of his income at the time of the application (not after), tax returns. w2's, 4 months pay stubs, letter of employment, and a personal statement stating that we anticipated that his affidavit might not suffice which is why we included an i864 from a joint sponsor.
I guess that was enough for us as the case went on to the next stage after the USCIS received the afore-listed documents.
Again, I am not an expert, so I do not know what would happen in your case.

Thank you so much.
I hope there aren't any other problems with the application ... I am pretty sure they received my response 5+ days before they officially stated they received it...smh
About the EAD, I guess i'll just wait. There isn't much I can do and I really don't want to make the wait longer.

Thanks for the quick replies.
2015 & 2014 tax returns and the corresponding w2's were sent with the application.
It is vital to mention that both tax returns had insufficient AGI's, but the current income field was filled with the 'sufficient' amount of 20,000USD+ since it was based on his expected current yearly earning at the time as indicated on his job letter.
We anticipated the petitioner's 864 might be an issue which is why we included the joint sponsor 864, however, we did not see this coming.
I guess we would have to send in fresh i864's, and explain the situation in a letter.
Hope that would be accepted by the USCIS since the RFE letter explicitly threatens denial if ALL of the documents they asked for weren't sent??

Good Day ladies/Gents:
Thank you for much for your anticipated replies and illumination.
I filed the 485, 130, 765, over 7 weeks ago with the supporting applications (864, 693, etc.).
I completed and included two 864's (one for the petitioner and one for the joint sponsor) in the application, however, I got an RFE last week for proof of Petitioner's income since the amount listed on the petitioner's form 864 was a sufficient amount.
1. The joint sponsor's 864 should override the petitioner's 864 right? if YES, why the RFE for the petitioner's 864?
2. We rightly anticipated the petitioner's job switch (although his income from his job at the time of submission/application was sufficient), to a lower paying job, which is why we included a signed 864 from a joint sponsor. The petitioner is currently in-between jobs, and this means that IF he were to get a job letter (from immediate former job - not the original Job) as proof of income, the listed amount would not be sufficient. What does this mean for us?
3. We have pay stubs as far back as 6 months for the petitioner, and a sufficient, but outdated job letter (the original job where is a former employee)? Would this help?
