The beneficiary's W-2s for 2006–2008 showed compensation of approximately $30,000–$30,500 per year, far below the proffered wage of $77,105.60, so actual wages paid did not establish ability to pay.

Bank statements are not among the three enumerated types of evidence at 8 C.F.R. § 204.5(g)(2), show only a point-in-time balance rather than sustainable ability to pay, and no evidence was submitted showing the bank balances reflected funds beyond those already captured in the tax returns.
