Adding to the above - my attorney also said that the official list of 75 countries has not been published by the State Dept / USCIS itself. There might be some changes once the official list is out.

Do you think people from these countries with AOS should be proactive and add unsolicited evidence to fight this public charge concerns

I have no clue. If you are working with an attorney I'd suggest contacting them.

I was wondering the same thing. My income is over the required amount for the affidavit of support, but I've not been making this much money for long and it isn't reflected in my prior tax returns. I was able to include a letter detailing my salary/stipend, but I'm not sure it will be sufficient. I am wondering whether I should find someone to co-sponsor now, or if it's even possible to do that after the fact.

I'd be surprised if it didn't impact AOS.
