Bank statements are not among the three acceptable evidence types under 8 C.F.R. § 204.5(g)(2) and cannot show sustainable ability to pay. Unaudited financial statements are management representations and unreliable. The claimed parent's tax return did not reflect ownership of the Petitioner, and state records confirmed the two entities are distinct, so no legal obligation to pay the wage was shown.
