Your immigration lawyer would know that what they seek is that you have had good conduct AND also that you can support yourselves. I don’t remember the exact amount but the immigration authorities do have a guideline on minimum income that they consider self sufficient, and per every person in the same household the minimum goes up. And they want to see the income in the form of past few years’ tax papers, not just payment slips. (This is as far as I know from helping a friend, though I am not a lawyer.)
