Thank you for the reply! Let me try to clarify.

my wife submitted i 485 last year. My dad (Joint Sponsor) and I (Petitioning Sponsor) submitted i 864, affidavit of support. I attached a letter of explanation for why I don't have income for the last 3 years, and also attached photocopy of my dad's tax income forms with schedules.

The letter (Request for Evidence) asked for completed I-864 and federal income tax return from both me (Petitioning Sponsor) and my dad (Joint Sponsor). It does not mention what deficiencies I made previously.

I do have 2018 tax return, W2, and pay stubs. I will definitely send those information.

I was wondering if I could get by without sending my dad's affidavit and supplemental documents and instead attach document stating that I wish to be the only petitioning sponsor and that my dad will not be joint sponsor anymore. I feel that it will be much easier and less likely to make some mistake in doing so. joint sponsor being self employed, some sources say to submit bank statement, letter explaining nature of business, business registeration, on top of all the schedules. 

Hello all!

We have just received the request document for my wife's AOS.

Specifically, they requested my (Petitioning Sponsor)'s I-864 and supplemental documents, as well as my dad (Joint Sponsor)'s I-864 and supplemental document.

this is the situation: when we applied for AOS, I was a medical student with a contract with the medical program (which specified income i will make) in my hand, but without actual income or any tax document for the last 3 years. 

so I asked for my dad, who is self employed, for joint sponsorship. (i didn't provide bank statement, business registration or license, or explanation of his business. i did provide all the schedules)

Now that I received the request for document, I am wondering if I should just send to them my information only, since I make sufficient income and have tax 1040 and w-2 to show for it. at the same time, I am worried that I might get in trouble for not supplementing information for my joint sponsor when they asked for it.
