My lawyer informed me that I have to fill out an affidavit of support even though I am a full time student and my father will be the one providing financial support for us until I have a large enough income to support us. I was informed that my father is considered my co-sponsor. I just have some questions, I don't know how to fill this affidavit of support out because many of these questions don't apply to me yet I am told that I must. Do I just leave blank the spaces that don't apply to me? That would mean leaving most of the form blank. I'm a bit confused any help would be greatly appreciates as this site is always full of kind people who know a lot more about this than me lol.

You fill in one Affidavit of Support with the data from your last tax returns; and your dad (God bless him for helping you folks out) fills another one.

which spaces you think do not apply to you?

Yes he is being great about this.

The spaces I'm referring to are stuff like this

"I am employed as or engaged in the business of__________"

"The following persons are dependent on me for support___________"

"I intened/do not intend tomake specific contributions for the support of the person(s) named in item 3."


Do I just leave these spaces blank?

See comments in RED above. You can do that or say N/A, but I would much rather fill everything out. Don't panic. Being a student did not prevent my husband from filing; and having a joint sponsor made it easier.

That's great, that's what I'll do but about the contributions it asks me to list my contributions, since I am not earning an income how do I list what I will contribute?

Oh, your husband was a student at the time you guys filed, that's great to hear, makes me less nervous
