Hi all,
My interview is coming up in a few weeks and we are gathering all the required documents. My mother-in-law is our joint sponsor and since she is married, we are aware that my father-in-law needs to fill out an i-864a to be brought to the interview. I'm trying to find out if we need to bring the same supporting documents for him as was required for the joint sponsor. On the CEAC portal, we submitted her proof of citizenship, domicile, tax returns, W2 forms, as well as pay stubs and an employment letter. On the travel.state.gov website it states we are required to bring a photocopy of her proof of legal status and most recent federal tax return to the interview, but does not mention the supporting documents requirements for her spouse, if any. Do we need to bring proof of his legal status and his most recent tax return in addition to his i-864a as well? Would any further documents be required, such as proof of income? If so, what documents would satisfy this requirement, given that is he retired?
If anyone has any information or advice on this, it would be super helpful and greatly appreciated!
Supporting documents required for spouse of joint sponsor?

Seems I might have asked this question a bit prematurely, as I've just read through the instructions for the i-864a form and have gotten most of my questions answered. For those who are searching for the same answers, I'll post below:
The following supporting evidence is required for the i-864a for the spouse of a joint sponsor, In this case "you" refers to the spouse filing the i-864a:
The instructions do not mention any evidence required for legal status of the spouse but probably safe to submit it anyway.
I guess my question at this point (maybe @Verrou has some advice on this), is where to upload these documents on the CEAC portal. Am I able to submit them under the joint sponsor since he is her household member, or do I need to contact the embassy/consulate as prescribed on the portal to add him as a financial sponsor?
