Got a notice that my case is documentarily qualified, but saw the following in my messages that was sent prior to the qualified message

CASE Fe Review note: The income reported as stated on form I-864, I-864A is insufficient to overcome the public charge grounds of inadmissibility for visa issuance. To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 from a joint sponsor may be submitted. For more information visit https://nvc.state.gov/aos and https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p. A consular officer will decide if you meet these requirements at the time of the interview. Note: You, as the sponsor, and any other sponsors household members and joint sponsors, must provide updated or additional evidence for the applicant to present at the time of their interview such as: * Other income * Assets * Proof of current employment Note: You submitted documentation to the National Visa Center through the Consular Electronic Application Center CEAC. You can continue to upload documents to CEAC up until the date of your visa interview.

Which is strange. I submitted on my 864 on line 12 of part 6 as earning 100k, which is way more than needed. Now, this was a new job in 2025, so I haven't had a chance to do my taxes yet, so I did submit my 2022-2024 IRS tax receipt, which is below the minimum needed.

I intend to do my taxes in the next month or so but since I'm filing MFS, it'll go by snail mail, so who knows when the IRS will update it on their website.

To be fair, I also submitted proof of my current employment, plus my 2025 W-2. so why are they saying this?

And should I submit anything prior to the interview, or just have my 2025 tax return ready to give to my partner to show to the interviewing officer?
